Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Community Services Act. Provides that whenever any appropriation, or any portion of an appropriation, for any fiscal year relating to the funding of any State-operated facility operated by the Office of Developmental Disabilities within the Department of Human Services or any mental health facility operated by the Office of Mental Health within the Department is reduced because of any of the following reasons, those moneys must be directed toward providing other services and supports for persons with developmental disabilities or mental health needs: (1) closing of a State-operated facility; (2) reduction of the number of available beds in a State-operated facility; or (3) reduction in the number of staff at a State-operated facility. Provides for the appointment of a Funding Reinvestment Advisory Task Force to assist the Department of Human Services in implementing these provisions. Effective immediately.

 Fiscal Note (Department of Corrections)
 Senate Bill 808 proposes that whenever any appropriation for a State-operated facility or mental health facility operated by the Office of Developmental Disabilities within the Department of Human Services is reduced due to the closing of a State-operated facility, reduction of the number of available beds in a State-operated facility, or reduction in the number of staff at a Staff-operated facility, the moneys must be directed toward providing other services and supports for persons with developmental disabilities or mental health needs. This legislation makes no reference to the closing or reductions of any facilities operated by the Department of Corrections, nor are any Department staff assigned to the Funding Reinvestment Advisory Task Force. In addition, there are no new incarceration sanctions, enhanced incarceration penalties, or policy requirements for the Department of Corrections associated with this legislation. Therefore, there is no corrections population or fiscal impact on the Departments.
