Summary

CSB staff reviewed FY2027 amendments to the DBHDS Performance Contract and Exhibit A funding projections, noted that DBHDS awards are the confirmed funding amounts while expenditure figures remain estimates, and floated a proposal for a Budget Manager position to meet new contract requirements.

Dr. Gabriella Caldwell‑Miller and CSB finance staff reviewed the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services (DBHDS) Performance Contract amendments for FY2027 and walked committee members through Exhibit A, which outlines projected funding and estimated expenditures. "Dr. Caldwell‑Miller explained the purpose and function of the DBHDS Performance Contract and reviewed the amendments for FY2027," the minutes state. The presentation emphasized that the funding awarded by DBHDS represents the confirmed amount while expenditure figures are estimates.

Finance staff noted changes to indirect cost rate requirements that could affect CSB budgets and services. Bernie Jordan presented a tentative proposal to create a Budget Manager position to oversee Performance Contract responsibilities and to provide enhanced financial support across CSB departments. Chair Ed Gooding also asked how artificial intelligence might be used to support Performance Contract budgeting; Bret Schardein described the County's process for piloting potential IT solutions. Staff invited committee members to submit follow‑up questions after the meeting, and the amended performance contract was posted for public comment with a staff presentation to the full board planned for August.
