Summary

Members requested monthly epidemiology updates and quarterly financial summaries; the board agreed to monthly EPI updates and quarterly financial briefings beginning this fall.

A board member asked that the new epidemiologist provide monthly updates to the board, similar to the prior practice, and members agreed to make epidemiology a regular agenda item.

"I really think that the new epidemiologist...will give us a monthly report as Brian did," one board member said, and Director D'amour confirmed that was her plan. Board members also requested a short, periodic summary of the department budget; the group agreed quarterly financial briefings would be appropriate.

Members discussed whether the financial update would fit in the September or October agenda; staff said they would try to include it in one of the fall meetings and that quarterly reporting would start as soon as scheduling allowed.
