Fehruary 13, 1981

The meeting was called to order at 8:00 a.m. by Chairman Hurwitz. All subcommi ttee members were prCSl~nt.

DEPARTME~T OF LABOR AND INDUSTRY

COl:Ll11issioner's Office

Dave Hunter, COITLmissioner of the Dc?artment of Labor and Industry, told the subcommittee that there is a request for one additional FTE which will affect the indirect costs for this budget. Mr. Hunter said he has no p:coblems with t:he ot_ht::r figurc3s for thi s budget.

Norm Rostocki, office of the legislative fiscal analyst, asked Mr. Hunter what he is planning to use as a salary for the Deputy Cownissioner. Mr. Hunter said he would take the salary of the existing administrator of the Employment Security Division and put that amount into the budc_,et for the Deputy Commissioner.

Norm said until the number of FTEs in each division is decided, the LFA will not know what the indirect costs will be.

Personnel Appeals Division

This division is responsible for hearings on classification appeals for state employees under the state classification plan. The division also is responsibie for the hearings for grievance procedures in the Department of Fish, Wildlife, and Parks and the Department of Highways.

Mr. Hunter gave the subcommittee members copies of EXHIBIT 1 and went over that handout with them.

Mr. Hunter said this division is very far behind in the classifica­tion appeals because they do not have the time or manpower to hear the appeals. He said the division still has some appeals from 1978 to be heard.

Mr. Hunter told the subcornmi ttee they are requesting a transfer of $3,000 which is now in contracted services and will be transferred to personal services. The $3,000 would be used to upgrade an FTE from a grade 12 to a grade 14. That person would do nothing but classification appeals.

Bob Jensen, Administrator of the Personnel Appeals Division, explained the appeals process and told the subcommittee that about 60% of the appeals are turned down by the division.

~~onn 'Lold the subcom:-rli t.tee that b"ca use of :-;cvc~ (-,'11 up(jc<3,dcs, so.~e funds were switched f~om contracted services to personal seLvices.

Norm asked if the revolving fund authority will increase due to inflation. Mr. Hunter said the revolving fund applies to fact finding and arbitration. Mr. Jensen said the revolving fund is used to pay for the citizens fact finders which is $100 per day plus expenses.

Mr. Hunter said the department uses consultants for fact finding. The depari:J~lent kept the ClrTlOunt paid to them the :.3ame as last biennium.

Mr. Hunter said $5,000 has been added In contracted services for legal costs for hearings.

Norm said the LFA (Legislative Fiscal Analyst) added money to the base for training in the travel line-item.

Board of Personnel Appeals

Ron Weiss, Office of Budget and Program Planning, told the subcommittee if the department upgrades a position on their own, not through an appeal, there has to be a letter written to say there is enough money in the budget to handle the up­grade. In an appeal, if there is not enough money in the budget, the department has to come in for a supplemental.

At this time, the subcommittee went into EXECUTIVE SESSION.

DEPARTMENT OF h~BOR AND INDUSTRY

Personnel Appeals

Norm told the subcommitee the difference between the LFA and the·Executive (Governor's) recommendations is the amount of money put back into the base.

Senator Aklestad moved this subcommittee accept the Executive budget of $321,634 for FY'82 and $326.140 for FY'83.

The motion was voted on and PASSED unanimously.

DEPARTMENT OF HEAL'i'H AND ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES

Legal Division

Norm told the SUbcommittee the issue with this budget is the

February 13, 1981

affi\),mt of general fund the division will (jet.

Norm said the division is asking for $26,000 in each year of the biennium for secretarial staff.

Norm said this division is a service division and should charge the costs for services back Lo the receiver.

The rent line-item was discuss2d. Norm ~told the subcormnittee this division started renting data processing equipment in 1971. (The LFA has included only the building rent in their cecommenda­tion. The Executive included the building rent and the equip­ment rent.

Representative Waldron moved this subcommittee not recommend authority for direct general fund for the Legal Division.

~he motion was voted on and PASSED unanimously.

Senator Aklestad moved this subcornmi ttee recornmend the LFA budget of $157,lS9 for Fy'S2 and $158,559 for FY'S3.

Norm told the subcommi t tee the lavlyers are going to conventions and the amount for that travel is in the "other" line-item. Senator Regan said that amount should be in the "travel" line­item. Norm agreed it should be.

Senator Aklestad's motion was discussed. Senator Aklestad said, by taking the LFA budg~t recommendation, the $4,000 for the conventions and books would be deleted. Representative Waldron said it would also delete the amount for the word processing equipment and he doesn't think that would be a good idea. If the division is going to do good legal work, the division should have the necessary equipment to help.

Ron Weiss asked if this subcommittee gave this division permission to rent a System 6 last biennium. Norm said there was money for that in the budget for the last biennium. He said $6,000 was spent in FY'SO and $12,000 was spent in FY'SI. ~orm said he didn't think the $6,000 would have been enough to cover anything but the building rent.

The motion was voted on and PASSED. Representative Waldron and Senator Regan voted "no" and the other subcommittee members voted "aye".

Maternal and Child Health Bureau

Norm told the subcommittee the only issue in this bureau is the

Improved Pregnancy Outcrrnc modified Wllich is totally fo~crally funded.

Senator Ak1cstad asked what the difference was between the LFA and Ex(~cuti ve in t.he "travel" line- item. :.::orm said the only difference is in the inflation factors used.

Senator l'oklestad asked \o,7hy thl?re is an inc'o::ase in the nu,nber of FTEs. Norm told him 2.5 employees from the Nursing Bureau will be added into this bureau and some secretarial staff is being dropped. The net change is an increase of 1.25 FTEs.

Representa ti ve Waldron moved thi s sl1bcorr,mi tt.ee approve t.he federal authority for the Improved Pregnancy Outcome Progcc,m with the understanding that the state will not replace the federal funds with general funds if the federal funds drop off.

The motion was voted on and PASSED unanimously.

Senator Aklestad asked Norm why the LFA is higher in general fund in Fy'83 than in FY'82. Norm said Ms. Sylva anticipated a drop in federal funds and reduced her budget accordingly.

Senator Aklestad moved this subcornmittee recommend the Fxecutive base amount in Fy'82 of $11,078,791 and $12,107,389 in FY'83.

The motion was voted on and PASSED unanimously.

Senator Regan said if there is a concern in the "rent" line-item, this subcommittee could make a note that the Department of Health and Environmental Sciences (DHES) could not pay more than charged by the Departme;1t of Administration. The subcommittee could say there will not be any transfer in or out of that line-item.

Ron Weiss said it could be noted that it is the intention of this subcommittee to not allow extra rent to be used for any­thing other than the rent of the building or equipment and any excess could not be used for any other division or line-item.

Food and Consumer Safety

Norm told the subcommittee the LFA doesn't reflect any 3l4(d) funds in this budget recommendation. He feels the LFA recommenda­tion accurately reflects the base. The Executive recommendation is higher.

February 13, 1981

Norm told the subcommi t~tee the LFA kept the Sf:?neral fund at the same percentage after the 314(d) funds were pulled out of the budget. Money is needed to continue the federal funds authority.

Representative vJaldron moved this subcOIl1!l1i t_tce accept the LFA recommended budget of $390,464 Eor FY ' 82 and $393,058 for py ' 83.

The motion was voted on and PASSED unanimously.

Norm told the subcommittee the LFA recoTIl!l1cndation did not cut the grants to locals. Representa ti ve Vvald:con said it :;hould be the intent_ion of this subcommi L tee that if tJ-)CCC are any cuts, the cuts should not be made in the "grants" arc"a.

The meeting was adjourned at 9:30 a.m.
