DISCUSSION:
Section 29321 of the California Government Code authorizes the board of supervisors to establish revolving funds for use of any county officer by adopting a resolution which sets forth: the necessity for the fund; the office, department, service or institution for which the fund is available; and the amount of the fund, which shall not exceed $250,000.
On July 3, 2007 (Item C-9), the Humboldt County Board of Supervisors adopted Resolution No. 07-49 which established a revolving petty cash fund for use by the Humboldt County Department of Health and Human Services - Behavioral Health (DHHS - Behavioral Health) Administration and Programs in the amount of $1,200. The Board subsequently adopted Resolution No. 15-112, which increased the amount held in the revolving petty cash fund established for use by DHHS - Behavioral Health Administration and Programs to $1,700, on Oct. 13, 2015 (Item C-4). On Sept. 13, 2016 (Item C-6), the Board adopted Resolution No. 16-106 which further increased the amount held in the revolving petty cash fund established for use by DHHS - Behavioral Health Administration and Programs to $2,200.
The attached resolution authorizes the following redistribution of the existing revolving petty cash fund established for use by DHHS - Behavioral Health Administration and Programs in the amount of $2,200 in order to adequately finance the expenditure of small sums of cash that are necessary to carry out daily operations, including, without limitation, out-of-pocket expenditures, minor cost items and supplies, as needed for various programs within DHHS - Behavioral Health:

ALTERNATIVES TO STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
The Board may choose not to approve the attached resolution rescinding Resolution No. 16-106 and authorizing redistribution of the existing revolving petty cash fund established for use by DHHS - Behavioral Health Administration and Programs in the amount of $2,200. However, this alternative is not recommended since the lack of petty cash among the various programs within DHHS - Behavioral Health could cause a barrier to adequately addressing immediate client needs.
