MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY ··BUDGET REVIEW•• Comments from the Public on Budget Items - None. REVIEW OF 2021 DEPARTMENT BUDGET 1. CHILD SUPPORT - Review of 2021 Department Budget. Child Support Director Maria Lasecki provided a handout re: 2021 Budget Overview (attached), a good glimpse of what their department does. She informed the federal fiscal year ended very well for their agency in terms of performance. They collected approximately $27.8 million in support and $6.9 million in arears which is significantly up over previous years and that always assists them in earning incentive money as well. She read from her handout, which detailed their Initiatives as well as Funding. Responding to Vander Leest, Lasecki informed for birth cost recovery, the $.15 adds up and they budgeted around $120,000 for 2021. In the past that had been matchable but CSA changed that federal requirement so it was no longer matchable. The state was making them whole through 2021 ,., 1- with different funds which makes that matchable. 2022 they will have a challenge before them and it will be significant. Motion made by Supervisor Peters, seconded by Supervisor Murphy to approve the Child Support 2021 budget. Vote taken. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY Although shown in proper format here, Non-Budget Items 11 & 12 were taken at this time. 2. CLERK - Review of 2021 Department Budget. County Clerk Sandy Juno and Chief Deputy County Clerk Justin Schmit were present to speak to the 2021 Clerk budget. Juno informed this year was a critical year as a lot of their budget depends on customer service and they were below due to COVID. For 2021, they looked at an average year and budgeted what their revenues would be. Juno informed that last year at this time they talked about merging County Board staff with the County Clerk's office to do some cross training and be able to utilize all of the staff more effectively. As of January 1n they merged and set out some new goals, revised job descriptions and set up a training plan. In June, County Board staff completed the training to be able to perform most of their office functions. They were also a critical part of helping with elections. She revised the job descriptions but when she got the job descriptions from HR, they were substantially out of date and didn't reflect what their job duties were. She rewrote them and submitted them to HR and was approved. She requested to move forward to change the Table of Organization, bottom line was a difference of $8,000 annually. Effectively it would make all of the staff whole because they were doing the functions of what her other staff was doing and they were performing at a deputy level. She was asking that they put them in the Table of Organization where they properly fit. Weininger interjected that according to Chapter 4.19 Creating New Positions, this was not appropriately before the committee, if Juno would like to put something for them to consider, they would have to do it as a TO change resolution. He noted she made the request however it was denied. Schadewald questioned, to have a proper discussion with this, what should departments do? Weininger interjected they had been through this before and reiterated the standard practice. Juno informed these have been vetted and reviewed by HR, she's stuck at Administration and the County Executive. She's been through three comp and class assessments and she believed when they're not fairly compensating staff for the work they're doing, that's how they dig themselves a hole. She cannot change their minds but as a supervisor, it was the right thing to do. Further discussions ensued with regard to the workload, time studies and the process to this. Motion made by Supervisor Vander Leest, seconded by Supervisor Murphy to approve the County Clerk 2021 budget. Vote taken. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY 3. CORPORATION COUNSEL - Review of 2021 Department Budget. Corporation Counsel David Hemery was present to speak to the Corporation Counsel budget. He informed the vast majority of their budget was taken up by salaries and benefits. Motion made by Supervisor Hopkins, seconded by Supervisor Vander Leest to approve the Corporation Counsel 2021 budget.
