This cost can be absorbed within the FY 2009-10 budget for Public Health. Should continued support be required in FY 2010-11, associated costs will be included in the proposed budget.
Background: After over sixteen (16) years of managing the Public Health Finance section, Ms. Bailey is retiring from the position of Fiscal Administrative Manager (FAM) effective February 26, 2010.
