~ On January 16, Janet McCumbee participated in the annual Partnership For Children (Smart
Start) Board retreat held at the museum. The Board reviewed the contractors' progress toward
meeting the old strategic plan and their successes this year Then the Board was briefed on the
need to switch gears to meet the new state Performance Based Incentive System, which came
about through legislation for Smart Start accountability Finally, the Board looked at how New
Hanover County's present Smart Start funded programs can help the Partnership meet the PBIS
standards over the next year The retreat discussion will guide the Strategic Planning and
Allocations committees as they proceed with the grant process over the next few months. The
Health Department is in its fifth year of Smart Start funding for the Child Care Nursing program
and Health Check Coordination.
~ In honor of National Children's Dental Health Month, the New Hanover County Dental
Program, the North Carolina Oral Health Section, Cape Fear Community College, and the
Wilmington TriCounty Dental Society are sponsoring "Seal Out 2002" "Seal Out 2002" is a
local Dental Health initiative to prevent tooth decay by the increased use of Dental Sealants.
"Seal Out 2002" will take place at the Cape Fear Community College Dental Program on Friday,
February 22, 2002. Local Dentists are volunteering their time in order to supervise the
placement of Dental Sealants by Dental Assisting and Dental Hygiene Students. In total, over

~ Food Security. Nancy Nail reported food security has become FDA's top food safety and
nutrition goal for FY 2002. However, the Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) feels
that FDA is focused too much on response rather than prevention. CSPI feels there is a need to
have tighter restrictions in place to ensure contaminated products don't even enter the system.
They site as an example a provision in the House and Senate bioterrorism bills that would allow
food importers to continue operating after an act of intentional food contamination. Importers
would onlv be shut down after an established pattern of introducing adulterated food into this

~ Chickenpox Vaccine: Beginning April 1 , 2002, varicella (chickenpox) vaccine is scheduled
to be a required vaccine for children born after April 1 ,2001 It must be administered on or after
12 months and before 19 months of age. While not required, varicella is encouraged for all
children born on or after July 1,1994 unless they have history of previous varicella disease.
~ Diagnosis Related Groups (DRGs): David Long, Intern in Hospital Administration @ NHHN
has streamlined his data (DRG's by zip codes for hospital discharges) and wants to spend time
with us to see if and how it can be useful to public health.
~
III. Communication, education & marketing (promotion)
(Issue #1 & 4 in part)
~ Eric Peterson with NHC-TV began making video segments of adoptive pets to air weekly on
the county TV station. Since the Humane Society's closing for remodeling, additional people
have come to ACS to adopt and several area television stations have included video time of
animals available for adoption.
~ ACS staff is working on compiling an adoption packet to be sent home with new "parents."
Requests on included content for the packet went out to area veterinarians along with the
September veterinary survey results.
~ January 2002 marked the initial release of our first in-house IT-Newsletter The intent of this
newsletter is to provide staff with a resource tool that will assist them with the use of their PC

The intent is to publish this newsletter on a monthly basis.
~ ServSafe Food Safety Certification Course: January marked our seven year anniversary of
teaching this course for the local food service industry The first session of the year 2002 was
held January 15, 17,22 and 24 to a sellout audience. Forty-five students participated, while
forty-one took the examination at conclusion and thirty-nine successfully scored in the
certification range. Cape Fear Community College registrars deferred at least a dozen enrollees
to the spring session scheduled in April 2002. Demand for this instruction prompted Cape Fear
administrator's approach of Environmental Health Specialists to offer a weekend version of the
course this summer Feasibility of this proposal is currently being evaluated.
~ The Women's Health Care Division sponsored a Baby Shower on behalf of our maternity
clients. Although the participants were nameless, the honored guests were all of the maternity

FYOl-02 BUDGET CONCERNS
REVENUES
Sales Tax $1.4 million
Based on receipts for the first quarter of the fiscal year and current economic conditions,
it is projected that Sales Tax will be $1.4 million under the amount budgeted for FY01-
02. Information on the County's sales tax receipts for the October-December 2001
quarter will be received from the State within the next two weeks. The Board of County
Commissioners will be informed of any change in this projection.
Interest Income $1 million
Due to the lower-than-anticipated interest rates, it is projected that interest income will be
$1 million less than the amount budgeted for FY01-02.
State Reimbursements $1.4 million
On February 5, 2002, Governor Easley announced that he would hold county
reimbursements to help the State budget shortfall. The impact on New Hanover County
is $1.4 million budgeted in the General Fund that will not be received. This action
coming so late in the fiscal year has made an already grave budget situation more critical.
e
EXPENDITURES
Medicaid $400,000
The State has estimated that the FY01-02 Medicaid expenditure for New Hanover County
will exceed the amount budgeted by $400,000. To date, New Hanover County Medicaid
expenditures are within budget. In addition to funding $7.8 million in Medicaid expenses,
the County also funds $1.1 million in other entitlement programs.
O~ertime Expenditures $700,000
The FYOI-02 budget was adopted with reduced budgets for overtime. Departments have
made attempts to eliminate overtime whenever possible. Even with these actions, it is
projected that the amount required for overtime County-wide will exceed the amount
budgeted by $700,000. Efforts continue to eliminate overtime, and this amount may be
reduced as we continue through the fiscal year.
Jail Health Expenditures $158,000
Current projections are that the expenditures for jail health care will exceed the amount
budgeted by $158,000. Expenditures vary depending on the number ot'inmates requiring
care and the cost of this Care. The estimate may be adjusted.
e
POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS TO FYOI-02 BUDGET SHORTFALL
Unexpended Salaries $1,248,542
Since the beginning of the fiscal year, all vacant positions have been reviewed for
possible elimination. A number of positions have been frozen and the filling of positions
delayed. To date, 40 positions have been eliminated. Due to these actions, it is
anticipated that at the end of the fiscal year there will be a balance unexpended of
$1,248,542 in the salary and benefit accounts (County-wide). This amount is not greater
due to the fact that the budget was adopted with salary and benefits under-funded by $1.2
million in anticipation that not all positions would be filled for the entire fiscal year.
e
Reduce Payments to Non-County Agencies $200,000
In the FY01-02 funding notification, non-County agencies were warned that the funding
might be reduced if an expenditure reduction was required. The savings is based on
reducing the remaining payment to non-County agencies by 50 percent (see attached
spreadsheet).
Reduce Airlie Budget $300,000
Recommendation is to eliminate the contribution of $200,000 to Airlie Foundation for
FY01-02 and reduce the Airlie budget by $100,000.
Reduce Contribution to Schools $2 million
On Monday, Cam and I met with Dr. Morris and Mary Hazel Small to explain that due to -
current economic conditions the County planned to reduce the contribution to the schools ,.,
in the current year by $2 million. The School Board is encouraged to budget $2 million of
the School's fund balance so the expenditure budget is not impacted by the County's
reduction.
Eliminate Balances in Certain Capital Projects $1,309,458
Staff has reviewed all capital project budgets and identified three budgets where balances
could be transferred to the General Fund without a significant impact on current capital
projects. The capital projects are Emergency Operations Center, $205,155; Veterans
Park, $966,000; and Soccer Complex, $138,303.
1. Emergency Operations Center - The capital project for the Emergency Operations
Center was established in 1995. The project was not undertaken at that time, since
the estimated cost for the project exceeded the amount budgeted. Currently, the
needs of the Center are being addressed by utilizing Law Enforcement capital
project funds.
2. Veterans Park - The balance in the Veterans Park capital project is funding that
was intended for a completed phase. The actual expenditures were less than the
budgeted funds.
e
l
e
POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS TO FYOI-02 BUDGET SHORTFALL
CONTINUED
3. Soccer Complex - In January 2000, a capital project was established for a soccer
complex in the Castle Hayne area. Seed money for the project was budgeted, but
the project was not undertaken.
As in any budget year, there are expenditures and revenues over and under the budgeted
amount. The good news is that the County has received $1.2 million from the Federal
Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for Hurricane Bonnie expenditures. The bad
news is that the Department of Social Services will need to return $400,000 to the State
for prior year adjustments. Museum repairs are expected to exceed the amount budgeted
by $160,000.
