9. PRESENTATION/DISCUSSION/POSSIBLE ACTION:
1. Discussion Regarding Invoicing Schedule Change for Medical Control Fee Commencing June 1, 2016
The Sacramento County EMS agency has requested a change in the billing cycle for the
JPA payment of medical control fees. They have requested yearly invoicing rather than quarterly invoicing as is currently being done.
There will be no financial impact as a result of the adjustment in the billing cycle. A motion was made by Deputy Chief Costamagna and seconded by Deputy Chief Bridge
to adopt this change.
AYES: Folsom Fire, City of Sacramento, Sacramento Metro, Cosumnes Community Services District
NOES: ABSENT: ABSTAIN:
Motion carried. 2. Discussion Concerning Interplay Between Board Policies, Administrative Regulations and
Standard Operating Procedures a. Direction to Legal Counsel to Draft Board Policies b. Decision Concerning Administrative Regulations c. Acknowledgment of Standard Operating Procedures
Mr. Kingsley had been asked to review our existing Board policies and make recommendations regarding any necessary revisions. During the course of his research, Mr. Kingsley located two sets of policies dated 1993 and 1998 and a policy manual. He was however, unable to determine whether any of these documents had been adopted by the Board. Counsel said a conversation with the Board to determine what they actually want for their policies is warranted. He provided a standard document format which would include dates of revisions. The 1993 and 1998 versions of the policies will be provided to the Board for review. Deputy Chief McLaughlin asked that Operations Chiefs be given an opportunity to provide input as we move forward with policy revisions. Board policies should provide guidelines addressing the operation of the governing Board, not necessarily how they perform these tasks. Chief Executive Director Murray said staff members are reviewing policies and procedures that pertain to the Center and Center personnel in order to provide a viable updated version. She requested to have the Board table this discussion until staff has completed this task and she is able to review the revisions.

1. The meeting was called to order and roll call was taken at 1:30 p.m.
2. There was no public comment.
OPEN SESSION: 1. Discussion of Financial Audit, FY 2014/2015 – Richardson & Company Ingrid Sheipline, Richardson & Company, summarized results of the audit Richardson & Company
performed. The audit report indicates a clean opinion. The management discussion provides a comprehensive overview of SRFECC’s financials.
The Center has a significant cash balance. However, their largest liability is related to employee benefits, including health and OPEB as well as the implementation of GASB 68 which requires full accountability of pension liability. The liability for retiree benefits will continue to increase as additional employees are hired, current employees reach retirement age, and health care benefit costs continue to increase. The net pension liability is affected by PERS discount rate. Effective with the year end of June 30, 2018, GASB 75 will be implemented which will result in changes to the disclosures for SRFECC’s OPEB plan. The annual OPEB cost only reflects the actual amount of contribution for current retirees, but does not address the projected potential liability. The Center functions on a “pay as you go” for retiree benefits. An over-allocation of interest by the County was offset against funds being held upon the Center’s withdrawal from County Department of Finance in fiscal year 2015. Doug Kuromoto said the Communications Letter addressed Richardson & Company’s responsibility with regard to the scope of the audit. Mr. Kuromoto said the staff was very helpful to them as performed the audit. As part of the audit process Richardson & Company prepared 20 adjustments which he explained to the Committee. The management letter provides recommendations, some of which were based on initial processes established upon leaving County Department of Finance and have subsequently been adjusted. As

required by California Government Code SRFECC investment policy will be presented to the Board annually for review and approval. The Finance Committee made the recommendation to have the audit documents brought before the Board at the May 31, 2016, Board meeting for approval.
2. Discussion Regarding Preliminary Budget, FY 2016/2017
Per Board direction Chief Executive Director Murray has reduced projected expenses in this Preliminary Budget, FY 2016/2017 document by $424,646, resulting in a balanced budget Anticipated funding for Workers’ Comp insurance has been cut by $30,000 as a result of an updated quote for the next fiscal year. Legal services have been cut by $70,000, due to a review of legal expenses not directly associated with SRFECC such as: the assumption of dispatching services for River Delta/Isleton and litigation as a result of 201 rights. Consulting services for Armanino has been pre-paid this year and the expense was removed from FY 2016/2017 Preliminary Budget. Athena IT support has been discontinued, saving us $30,000 for FY 2016/2017. Pulse Point software licensing and fees, $18,000, has been cut out of SRFECC FY 2016/2017 Budget. The initial cost for implementation had been provided through a grant, but annual maintenance will be shifted to each participating agency. Medical control services and CAD maintenance fees from Northrup Grumman have increased slightly in this preliminary budget. Based upon updated estimates radio maintenance and support has been reduced by $37,051 for the upcoming fiscal year. Any additional costs associated with P-25 will funded through the CPI. The Internet services line has been reduced by $72,000 as a result of removing the redundant AT&T line. The cost for 900 MHz pager services have been removed from this budget for a savings of $54,000. We anticipate correspondence from SRRCS stating they will no longer support the 900 MHz pagers. The radio equipment line has been reduced by $40,000 and other communication services and equipment line was reduced by $20,000 based on last year’s expenditures. However, we are being mandated to move from analogue to digital radio consoles (P-25) to the tune of approximately $1,000,000. We have $1,082,000 in our CIP account, and this expenditure will drastically reduce the CIP account. The remaining sum of money in the CIP account will be used to fund any change orders, enhancements and interfaces for the new CAD, as well. Employee training was reduced by $19,000 and transportation costs were cut $7,200 by eliminating a planned lease vehicle.
The $424,647 reductions made to the various line items has resulted in a balanced budget for FY 2016/2017, which was the direction the Board had given to Chief Executive Director Murray. Chief Executive Director Murray reminded the Committee that the Center has assumed responsibility for several projects that had not been funded initially and these have been accomplished without additional member agency assessments.

May10, 2016 Minutes
Chief Phillips asked why the cost of overtime is so high when we are “fully staffed”. Chief Executive Director Murray responded that full dispatcher allocation of 36 from 1984, is no longer adequate to cover vacations, training days and sick absences, etc. based on our continually increasing call volume. However, the recruitment and retention budget line remains necessary as we continue to recruit new dispatch personnel as current employees retire or leave our employ. Chief Executive Director Murray is preparing a five year strategic staffing model plan to address this personnel issue. Chief Phillips asked about the costs associated with training. Center personnel attend valuable training and help mitigate costs by being active on Boards of organizations sponsoring the training and making presentations during the conferences/training and in some cases the conferences we attend are reimbursed by the State. A question was asked regarding Command Catering. The revenue generated from Command Catering helps to off-set the cost of the lease for our DR site, which Chief Executive Director Murray had been asked to procure with no additional money allocated to accomplish that. However, Deputy Chief Bridge indicated that Metro will be reclaiming their building at the end of our lease, April, 2017. The building has been equipped to facilitate the CAD build which will extend into 2018, and Chief Executive Murray wished to discuss a lease extension until the completion of the CAD build. Beginning with fiscal year 2017/2018, the member agencies should be prepared for increases in their assessments. The recommendation of the Finance Committee is to bring this revised FY 2016/2017 Preliminary Budget to the full Board for approval at the May 31, 2016 meeting. A summary of the CIP balance, increased Medical Director costs and the cost of the P-25 migration will be brought to the May 31, 2016 Board meeting for review.
