DECISION BY BERNADETTE PAGANO
----------------------------------------------
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATIONS AND BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Board deny Bernadette Pagano's appeal of the General Assistance
Evidentiary Hearing decision.
BACKGROUND:
Notice was sent by the County to the claimant on 5/7/91 regarding
proposed action effective 6/1/91. Claimant's request for Evidentiary hearing
was filed 8/13/91, and the Hearing was held on 10/21/91.
Board policy requires that a Hearing request must be filed within 30 days
of the date of the notice -- 5/7. General Assistance recipients are advised
of the Board policy on the reverse side of every Notice of Action. Since
claimant's request was not filed until 8/13, and she was unable to establish
good cause for the failure to file a timely request, the Hearing Officer had
no jurisdiction to render a decision. The claim was denied.
Signare:
ACTION OF BOARD ON 2/11/9 2 APPROVED AS RECOMMENDED X OTHE
The appellant did not appear to speak and on recommendation of
Supervisor Fanden, IT IS BY THE BOARD ORDERED that the above
recommendation is APPROVED.
