MINUTES OF WORK SESSION
DESCHUTES COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 23, 2014
Present were Commissioners Tammy Baney, Anthony DeBone and Alan Unger.
Also present were Tom Anderson, County Administrator; and, for a portion of
the meeting, Judith Ure, Administration; Wayne Lowry, Finance; Hillary
Saraceno, Health Services; media representative Elon Glucklich of The
Bulletin; and five other citizens.
Chair Baney opened the meeting at 1:30 p.m.
1. Service Partners Updates.
Bethlehem Inn — Gwenn Wysling
Central Oregon Council on Aging — Matt Verdieck
Redmond Senior Center — Sue Barker
Matt Verdieck of the Central Oregon Council on Aging explained that he is the
new director and is also involved in managing Klamath and Lake counties'
senior organizations. This was a challenging year with the sequestration cuts
they had to face. They had to reduce support for congregate dining and meals
on wheels, and have waiting lists for those now.
The over 60 population here is increasing more than the national or state level,
and the need has gone up again. None of the sequestration cuts were restored,
primarily for nutrition They might be at some level, but are held up at the State
level. There are 17 councils on aging in Oregon, and all funding comes through
the State. Distribution is based on population and urban vs. rural.
Chair Baney feels that AOC should be advocating for this. DHS needs to do
more in this regard as well. Tom Anderson feels that census data should be
utilized for this; Mr. Verdieck observed that the urban centers are heavily
favored. The partners and volunteers are critical, and they are trying to arrange
for more fundraising.

They are also trying to consolidate services into a network, so anyone needing
help can be directed to the proper agency. In regard to fundraising, it is a very
competitive environment. Meals on wheels and nutrition services have a very
positive return, and often this is the only time some seniors are seen by others.
Instead of replacing the operations person, they brought in someone part-time to
handle fundraising efforts. Each primary meal site and hub for meals on wheels
has a coordinator. The Bend Senior Center coordinates this for the County.
Out of the cuts they had to make, they took over half from staffing. It is as lean
as it can be, but they wanted to keep supporting the seniors as much as possible.
Commissioner Unger stated that there is a discretionary grant program to help
support fundraising efforts, if they want to pursue this at some point. They
provide meals for seniors five days a week, and also can provide some pet food
so the seniors don't give their own food to their pets.
Sue Barker of the Redmond Senior Center said the building they use was built
in 1991 and expanded in 2001, and improvements were made over time. What
was left undone was the kitchen. They have had to buy new appliances. They
provide over 100 meals a day, seven days a week. They experienced cuts as
well but have tried to provide for all. Some of the funds are coming from
operations now. They also prepare meals for Jericho's Table through the
churches. They have had to closely monitor food costs and portion control.
They rent out the space when they can to raise funds. Fundraising is hard, but
they have gone to the business community who purchases space on their menu
and other printing. They get $325 per month worth of janitorial services from
the City since the City owns the building through a community block grant.
They ask some meals on wheels clients for a donation to help with the ones who
are unable to pay. There is a large senior population in the Redmond area. The
federal government covers one -third of the cost of meals; the rest has to be
covered in other ways. Meals average about $1.50 each and all is fresh cooked.
Chair Baney thanked Ms. Barker for her work. Mr. Verdieck added that they
are a great partner helping seniors.
Minutes of Board of Commissioners' Work Session Wednesday, April 23, 2014
Page 2 of 10
Gwenn Wysling introduced Lynn Edwards, who handles the volunteers at
Bethlehem Inn. Chair Baney said volunteers are critical to the various groups
in the area. They operate 365 days a year and they have an average of 82
residents who need three meals a day. They have seen a drop in the support
they have been getting, but try to leverage all they receive. They work with the
Health Department also since they do not have a commercial kitchen.
Ms. Wyyling spends a lot of time in the community to try to gain support. The
funds they receive also help with emergency food boxes, clothing and other
basics. They did not get an award from the Safeway Food Drive food as
anticipated last fall, so they are trying to do smaller food drives to make up for
this. They work with other agencies as much as possible.
Chair Baney asked how they deal with people who come in from other areas.
The shelter is here and the community supports it.
Ms. Edwards said if people call in from other areas looking for housing, they
try to discourage them coming. They can ask those questions as part of
screening. They can stay only for seven days unless they get a job and show
significant forward movement. The Inn tries to keep these resources in the
community. Ms. Wysling added that those coming through are about 5% of the
population. They also deal with people who are on probation or are in other
situations where finding shelter is difficult. They had to put some limitations in
place.
2. Video Lottery Prioritization Process Discussion.
Ms. Ure said they started the prioritization process last year. She referred to
handouts with the history of the lottery fund and where funds have gone. This
year the funds were about $20,000 less than anticipated.
One option is to cut the service partner funding by about 17 %. Alternatively,
they could limit the discretionary grant program to $5,000 or less a quarter.
The Commissioners all have some funds left for this fiscal year. The last
alternative would be to transfer general funds to this fund.
Minutes of Board of Commissioners' Work Session Wednesday, April 23, 2014
Page 3 of 10
The history of the video lottery fund shows they have rarely exceeded the
designated amount. Wayne Lowry explained that the lottery is a billion dollar
fund at the State level. In general, revenues are increasing but the last couple of
biennium suffered due to less disposable income. When the federal tax holiday
ended, it directly impacted disposable income and accounted for some of this
drop. Also, a big expense at the State level is replacing 12,000 video machines.
They take this right off the top of the fund. The economic development portion
that goes to the counties is only 2.5% of revenue. However, the schedule shows
an increase during the coming years of an average of 14 %. Overall, it appears
the State feels lottery funds will lag somewhat.
Mr. Lowry stated that 90% of the funds come from video lottery within this
county. As employment increases, it should increase. The other 10% is an
even distribution to the counties. Ms. Ure stated that the third quarter payments
to partners are being sent out, but if there is going to be a reduction, the Board
needs to decide what to do with the fourth quarter — either cut payments or
increase the fund. It is possible that there will be enough, but they need to be
prepared.
Chair Baney stated that in the past they have had to add money to the funds by
this time. This year they have paced themselves and are on track. Ms. Ure said
that they had set aside $20,000 for fundraising so those funds did not have to
come out of the proposed fund allocations. She has had no applications for the
fourth quarter. If they come in later, it may be possible to defer some to the next
fiscal year.
Commissioner Unger said they should stay on track and monitor funds to try to
stay within what is there.
Regarding the fund allocations for the last, current and future years, Ms. Ure
went over the anticipated resources and set expenses. This is where they could
hold back for potential shortfalls next year, as reserves or a contingency.
The anticipated starting balance for the next year will be much lower than
previously. EDCO has requested more funds this year. The Board has given a
considerable amount of money to the Venture Catalyst Program and Founders
Pad. The Commissioner said they thought those were for more of a short-term
need at the time and not forever funding.
Minutes of Board of Commissioners' Work Session Wednesday, April 23, 2014
Page 4 of 10
Commissioner Unger feels EDCO should get the requested amount. He feels
this commitment was not short-term. Commissioner DeBone wants to see La
Pine and Sisters supported as they get on track.
Commissioner Unger said he wonders why the Venture Catalyst fund is at
$30,000. Chair Baney said she thinks this should be the same as Founders Pad
at $15,000. She would like more information on these programs and what kind
of return the County gets.
COIC has asked for additional funds. The Board suggested they find another
source for this. It is important work and needs to be supported, but the amount
is not for a specific program but more of a membership fee. Mr. Anderson
stated that the Board could move it to the general fund, where it was at one
point until the general fund was experiencing a shortfall due to other demands.
The Shop with a Cop program was allocated funds last year, and this year
would be at $3,000. Volunteer Connect received funds in the past to offset
event costs at the Fairgrounds, but they have not requested it this year. The
Board said they should keep the $3,000 in place in case it is needed.
Regarding the Westside traffic study, Mr. Anderson said this was a one -time
expense relating to OSU- Cascades and the demo landfill. It could be for
economic development. Chair Baney feels this is more appropriate in capital
expenditures or property development, as a cost associated with a County
project. Mr. Anderson stated that the landfill is just part of this larger project,
but is not specifically for the landfill. Chair Baney stated that they would
probably have to spend the same money for its own property anyway. The
Board put $25,000 in this line to see how it affects the final numbers.
Ms. Ure asked if any of the Commissioners have plans for any specific projects.
Commissioner DeBone feels they may need some for traffic changes relating to
the land La Pine just received. Chair Baney said that they may be able to grants
for this kind of thing, and it is a ways off. She does not want to presuppose a
request.
In regard to service partner funding, Ms. Ure went over the criteria required.
They would have to be providing a critical service that the County would
otherwise have to provide, it was created with help from the County, it is the
only organization that can provide the service, or there is an identified need that
has to be met.
Minutes of Board of Commissioners' Work Session Wednesday, April 23, 2014
Page 5 of 10
Some adjustments to the amounts were made last year, and she does not know
the history of how they got to the specific levels.
Chair Baney stated that CASA now has funding from the State that is viable
and sustainable, and she feels the amount provided to them should be reduced.
Commissioner Unger does not want to be that drastic, but instead let them know
it will be decreased. Chair Baney suggested $20,000 instead of $30,000.
Chair Baney feels that the Upper Deschutes Watershed Council is in the wrong
category. However, the Commissioners appoint their entire board of directors.
They are not a human services provider but do have an economic development
component. Commissioner Unger said that the group worries about what they
have to do to prove themselves.
Chair Baney thinks the Latino Community Association is doing other things
than she thought they would be doing. Ms. Ure said they are a sole source
provider and the population they serve is growing. Commissioner Unger feels
they should invest in them for the services that are needed to support various
County departments.
In regard to 2 -1 -1, funding was reduced previously. Hillary Saraceno said they
help the family resource person. Chair Baney stated that they make work for
the County easier since people can be referred to 2 -1 -1.
The Board suggested that the same allocations be provided to the other service
partners. Commissioner Unger asked about the $4,000 for the Redmond Senior
Center but does not want to just drop them. Chair Baney said the other senior
centers are not listed. Mr. Anderson suggested that they be asked if they have a
specific need for the $4,000, such as a kitchen project. Commissioner Unger
wants to advocate for a soft landing for any of the groups.
Ms. Ure said that Healthy Beginning has requested a place as a service partner.
Chair Baney stated that they feel Deschutes County helped create the group.
Ms. Saraceno said they consider themselves a partner. It was not seen as a need
in the community at the time, although there were a lot of under - insured or not
insured children then; this is not the case now.
Minutes of Board of Commissioners' Work Session Wednesday, April 23, 2014
Page 6of10
Ms. Saraceno broke down the criteria and some of the areas are gray. The
original intent was with social service partners as an identified need. She feels
the County partnership is critical. Staff helps with screenings and the
campaign, and an early learning hub. Ms. Ure stated that the idea is the County
was integral in establishing the group. Ms. Saraceno said it was not seen as a
need at the time by Health.
Chair Baney stated that the director disputes this. Ms. Saraceno said that they
feel they are a sole source provider, but this is only partly true. Part of the early
learning hub is the screenings, which need to be coordinated and universal.
Some of their screenings are not done elsewhere, such as hearing tests. It is free
and run by volunteers, so how are the resources used.
She said that they claim to provide a mandated service, but those are mostly for
the school districts. Healthy Beginnings does not necessarily serve the at risk
population as a safety net. Others can provide these screenings but they do not
do all of the 12 -point aspects.
Chair Baney asked if they historically have gotten funding. Ms. Ure said that
they have received community grants. She does not recall if they received
discretionary grants.
Commissioner Unger asked how this fits into early learning, and whether it
helps with the process. Perhaps parents would not otherwise do this kind of
thing otherwise. Many of the children do not get this done. Ms. Saraceno
stated that there is some overlap of screenings that other groups do. WIC
provides something similar, but not all children are on WIC.
Chair Baney said they could put Healthy Beginnings on the list and ask them to
track this. Ms. Saraceno added that they would need to demonstrate they are
serving the vulnerable and at risk population. The safety net is for those
children. They are working with the CCO as well to set up a fund for
screenings in general. A lot of nonprofits provide some of the services. Many
of them are not counted and not compensated. Most of the referrals to Healthy
Beginnings come from WIC.
Minutes of Board of Commissioners' Work Session Wednesday, April 23, 2014
Page 7of10
Ms. Saraceno said they are going into the preschools, and no one else is doing
this. Chair Baney feels there is no wrong door, and screenings need to be
consistent and thorough so that children are ready. If they are on the list, they
can be required to provide outcomes. She likes the universal component and
not limiting this to just those are at risk. Ms. Ure said service partners have
stricter reporting criteria to follow than they would have by getting funds
through other means.
Chair Baney said they should be added by $10,000. Commissioner Unger likes
the idea of all children getting screening and it enhances what the County does.
Commissioner Unger feels the discretionary grant fund level should remain the
same. It can be used as a contingency. Commissioner DeBone stated that they
can say it is gone at any time. Commissioner Unger suggested $15,000 rather
than $20,000 per Commissioner.
Ms. Ure said the fundraising category has a specific purpose. The Board said
they should keep it at $20,000.
In regard to community grants, United Way received $75,000 previously, and
other agencies got a percentage. The Board said $10,000 would come out of
the Other category to offset the Healthy Beginnings amount that was in there.
Chair Baney said that the Redmond Senior Center received funds through this
category as well.
Ms. Ure stated that the community grants are someplace between service
partners and small discretionary grants. She feels it is a good program. There
are no other options for these groups. Chair Baney feels they are important.
Ms. Ure said a committee reviews these applications and the Board ultimately
approves them.
Chair Baney feels the traffic study should be handled as a project. Ms. Ure
stated they are about $66,000 short if they use the numbers discussed. If they
keep the numbers the same, they would be $92,000 short.
Minutes of Board of Commissioners' Work Session Wednesday, April 23, 2014
Page 8of10
Commissioner Unger feels that some things will be funded in a different way
with health care reform. Chair Baney does not think there will be a lot of
change this year but perhaps in the future.
Chair Baney wants to stay the course one more year. United Way handles
many of the agencies involved except the ones that are not part of what United
Way covers. She suggested they could go down to $70,000. Or, they could
keep the same allocations and get a contribution from the general fund if lottery
funds don't come in higher. Commissioner DeBone feels they need to help the
groups budget knowing they will get this assistance.
Regarding the Westside traffic study, Mr. Anderson feels that perhaps this and
the overhead and internal services be paid from general fund. The Watershed
Council could be moved to where EDCO is an economic development. He
does not want to set precedence that some of the others come out of general
fund.
Chair Baney suggested they reduce the emergency fund as well. The
fundraising grant category was reduced to $15,000 and the United Way fund to
$65,000. This allows for more funds in the other categories.
Ms. Saraceno would like to see the Healthy Beginnings program tied to WIC.
This gives a bit of leverage.
Mr. Anderson suggested that the business loan fund not be recapitalized. Those
funds might expire this year so the program would be suspended unless other
funds come in. It needs to be self - sustaining.
Mr. Ure said that additional funding for these categories came through the
general fund until last year, when it came from the economic development fund.
She said that reporting for lottery funds is more complicated if overhead is paid
through the general fund.
Commissioner Unger feels that they should consider the Red Cross as an
essential partner, especially for emergency services. He would like to
coordinate with the Sheriff and others as to what they provide. At this point,
they can only apply for a community grant.

Judith M. Ure
Management Analyst
Department of Administrative Services
Deschutes County
Dear Judith and County Commissioners:
Deschutes County Healthy Beginnings, Inc. has had a long history of partnership with Deschutes County.
Indeed Deschutes County is even part of our name! We exist in large part due to this partnership. It is in
consideration of our shared values for children and families in Deschutes County that I am requesting that
Healthy Beginnings be considered for County Service Partner funding.
My reasons are three fold:
I ) Healthy Beginnings provides a key mandated service to young children in Deschutes County — Child
Find. And although we do receive a small amount of support from the three school districts in
Deschutes County — the investment is only about 4% of our budget. Over the last few years, HB has
increased services in Deschutes County and to vulnerable populations — with no increase. In fact HB is
embarking on a new expansion reaching out and screening children in preschools and daycares with a
custom screening we are calling 4 Before 5 (four screening assessments — development, behavior,
hearing, and vision). Our program continues to expand serving more children in Deschutes County —
with no stable funding stream.
2) Healthy Beginnings is the only program in Deschutes County (and now Central Oregon) that provides
free developmental and universal screenings to children with no eligibility criteria and at no cost to the
families. We are often the first step to access for needed health, education, and behavioral services for
young children and their families. In fact HB is the only program like this in the state — and it started
here in Deschutes County.
3) Healthy Beginnings began its work through collaboration between the Deschutes County Health
Department, Head Start, and the local school districts. Too many children were being missed and
were starting kindergarten with barriers for success. Our original Board was lead by Dan Peddycord,
at the time the director of Deschutes County Health Department and the program has worked
closely with both Health Department program and Head Start since its inception. We maintain close
ties with all school districts as we are under the umbrella of the High Desert Education Service
District.
Healthy Beginnings' mission states that we believe that all children should enter kindergarten healthy and prepared
to learn. Our work fosters healthy, nurtured children, families and communities by bringing accessible physical,
developmental and behavioral screenings to children from birth through age five. As you know, HB provides early
childhood health and developmental screenings, referral, and follow -up services for all children in Central
Oregon, aged birth through five years, at no cost to the families.
Without these screenings and referrals, many health and developmental concerns would neither be identified
nor treated and resources would remain unknown to parents. Sadly, research shows that many children do
not have their concerns identified until 2 years after the child has started school. The damage and difficulty

Community Partner
caused by these lost early years are devastating to a child's development. Healthy Beginnings (HB) is the only
comprehensive community screening program in all of Oregon and our research indicates that there are only
9 similar programs nationwide. In the past 20 years the program has provided screening services for to nearly
8,500 children identifying 6,500 concerns. HB's follow -up indicates that nearly 70% of the families receive
services. HB's satisfaction rate with parents and volunteers is 98 %. HB has received local, state and national
recognition.
Currently HB offers 18 screenings per year in Central Oregon. Fourteen of these screenings are in Deschutes
County. HB provides these community screening clinics in Bend, Redmond, Sunriver, Sisters, and La Pine.
With requests from neighboring counties, HB recently added 2 additional screenings in Prineville (Crook
County) and 2 clinics in Madras (Jefferson County). This expansion increased community service by 25%
offering service to potentially 500+ children and families throughout the region.
The program's impressive volunteer corps, (over 400 volunteers) community partners and consistent financial
support demonstrates that Healthy Beginnings is respected and admired by the community we serve.
One of HB's chief strengths is its collaboration with other organizations providing significant in -kind staff,
training, materials, equipment, facilities, office space, and marketing. Collaborations include: Early Intervention,
Early Childhood Special Education, Neighborlmpact -Head Start, Local School Districts, St. Charles Medical
Center, Mosaic Medical, County Health Departments, local colleges and universities, community dental
professionals, speech therapists, and many others. Through this network, HB has developed a reciprocal
referral system, offering a seamless system of assessment to children and education to parents as they
transition through these services. The High Desert Education Service District acts as HB's fiscal agent and
provides easy access for referrals to other HDESD programs including Early Intervention and Early Childhood
Special Education.
am enclosing a copy of the program's Bear Facts and although it represents the efforts in all three counties,
Deschutes, Jefferson, and Crook, please know that the vast majority of our work is in Deschutes County —
and any dollars supported from the county is designated to support the work in Deschutes County. We are
working diligently to gain support from all three counties through requests of their County Commissioners
and through grants and fundraising efforts.
I am available if you have any questions and would welcome any chance I have to meet with you to provide
additional information on this program and service.
Deschutes County can be proud of this program — it was designed and initiated by caring county employees
and serves a unique role in our community.
Thank you again for all you do to support the health and wellness of children throughout Central Oregon.
Sincerely,
Holly Remer
Executive Director

Deschutes County
Service Partner Program
Designation Criteria
1. Mandated Countv Activitv or Sole Source Provider: If the organization terminated,
Deschutes County would be statutorily required to ensure that the services continued to
be available or no other organization provides equivalent services and Deschutes County
residents would experience a significant gap in services as a result.
2. County Involvement: Deschutes County initiated, led and /or was actively involved in
the creation or development of the organization in a role greater than simply participating
as a partner and the organization was initiated based on an identified need and /or a gap in
the safety net service delivery system identified in the Community Plan.
3. Countv Service Impact: If the organization terminated, there would be a significant and
negative impact on County services that would require County resources either to fill or
to mitigate the impact.
