Fiscal Impact/Change to Net County Cost
This budget transfer increases revenues and appropriations in Public Health by $42,000 and increases revenue in Human Services by $1,386,000. This results in a decrease to Human Service's FY 2011-12 Net County Cost (NCC) by $1,386,000 and a corresponding increase in General Fund Contingency of $1,386,000.
Reason for Recommendation
Social Services realignment revenues are often times difficult to project based on a methodology from the State based on caseloads. Actual realignment revenues have come in significantly higher than budgeted and the Department needs to recognize this revenue. Social Services requested a significant increase in NCC in FY 2011-12. This additional revenue will help offset a large portion of those increased costs and reduce Human Services NCC in FY 2011-12. This reduction in NCC or department "savings" were anticipated and included in the fund balance projection for FY 2012-13.
