Chairman McIntyre presented for action a request to approve an Emergency Appropriation Ordinance Amending the McLean County Fiscal Year 2019 Combined Annual Appropriation and Budget Ordinance General Fund 0001. Ms. Metsker asked if we have looked at leasing options for vehicles since there were so few miles on vehicle. Mr. Wasson indicated that there have been discussions about better utilization of vehicles across all departments, but felt in this instance purchasing was the best option. Mr. Caisley asked if we transport to other counties. Ms. Taylor stated that we do not; they have to send their own transportation.

Chairman McIntyre presented for action a request to approve an Addendum to the DCP/McLean County Health Department EZEMRx Agreement. Mr. Wasson indicated that we have had a contract in place for about 4 years now, but with the addition of the behavioral health services it was determined that the contract should be reviewed and modified for those services. Ms. Metsker asked why this needed to be put through right now and not wait until June so members could have time to review the document. Ms. Malott indicated this was the data tracking / record keeping tool and they wanted to start programs with it in place. She
indicated that they could start with paper, but would then need to add that information later in the system. Ms. Metsker asked what the modifications were. Ms. Woods indicated that all changes were to the benefit of the County including insurance coverages, indemnification and limited liability. Mr. Soeldner asked if this added to our cost for this service. Ms. Malott indicated it did but that it had been included in her budget. Mr. Caisley asked if this involved tele psychiatry. Ms. Malott confirmed this contract was not for tele psychiatry services but a data tool for record keeping.
Motion by Murphy/Soeldner to recommend approval of the Addendum to the DCP/McLean County Health Department EZEMRx Agreement.
Motion Carried.
Chairman McIntyre asked if there was other business to come before the Committee, hearing none he adjourned the meeting at 5:31 p.m.
