xA County
SUBJECT: INTEGRATION OF FAMILY SERVICES
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
Amend the referral of this matter by the Board of Supervisors on
December 15, 1992 to reflect referral to the 1993 Internal
Operations Committee, rather than to Supervisors McPeak and Powers .
BACKGROUND:
On December 15, 1992, the Board of Supervisors received a report
from the County Administrator on the "Integration of Family
Services" (Determination Item #2 .2) . The report requested the
appointment of a member of the Board of Supervisors to work. with
the Health Services Department, Social Services Department and
Probation Department in discussing with employee organizations the
ramification of service integration and the establishment of pilot
teams . In response to this recommendation, the Board of
Supervisors appointed Supervisors McPeak and Powers for this
purpose.
However, Supervisor McPeak, who was not present at the Board
meeting on December 15, had discussed with Supervisor-elect Jeff
Smith the appropriateness of referring this item to the 1993
Internal Operations Committee. Both had agreed that this would be
the preferable referral . Supervisor Powers has indicated that he
is willing to defer to the wishes of Supervisor-elect Smith in this
_ regard and therefore concurs that a referral to the 1993 Internal
.Operations Committee is appropriate, rather than a referral to
Supervisors McPeak and Powers .
