MORRIS COHEN, LOCAL HEALTH OFFICER FOR THE BOARD OF HEALTH Community Health Services has been awarded a 2007 grant for $210,000.00 (an increase from $119,445 in 2006) and a 3-year partnership for funding at this level annually. Also attached to today's meeting packet are the third quarter financials. At the end of nine (9) months they have $46,056 in net income for 2007, and a fund balance of $308,956.00. Support, revenue and expenses by class can be found on pages 5-8 of the meeting packet. The material also demonstrates the other sources of revenue and funding by program type and shows where the county's grant (local contracts) makes up the shortfall. BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS 1 SPECIAL MEETING DECEMBER 04, 2007 Liz Stark addressed the highlights of the following draft documents which have been attached to the end of today's meeting packet. Discussion among the board and staff developed on the following plans: / Pandemic Influenza Response Plan / Community Containment Plan / Mass Fatality Further discussion ensued regarding the following points: ~ How is information getting out to the public ~ What can the County do to help - How can we prepare the public There are television spots done by Community Health Services staff telling the public about where and when to get their flu shots as well as past public informational ads on West Nile, seasonal flu, and Pandemic flu. There are also two pamphlets from Ready Colorado entitled Pandemic Flu Get Ready and Pack A Kit Check List. The pamphlets are attached to the end of today's meeting packet material. Liz Stark said that she tried to give the pamphlets out at the Aspen Saturday Market this past summer but people were not that interested in getting this type of information at that venue. During discussion on the pandemic influenza Response Plan, Community Health Services staff stated that they do not have a lot of storage space to load up on items that could be of use during a crisis but are low cost and available now. Commissioner Kay-Clapper suggested that a good location for this type of storage (cots, gloves, masks, etc.) might be at the airport. She pointed out the facility called the Airport Operations Center that has a loft space for storage. Susan Berdahl asked the board what they would like to keep, change, add or delete about future meetings in 2008. Commissioner Kay-Clapper would like updates on emerging issues while focusing on one new topic per meeting for discussion. She would also like to get this information to groups that come before the board starting in January, 2008. Commissioner Hatfield would like the yearly financials at the first quarterly meeting of each year for the previous year. Dr. Cohen suggested that the board members let Community Health Services know of any topics they would like to discuss.
