Ellen Mustoe supported the suggestion. “Mrs. Buntin wears too many hats,” Miss Mustoe maintained, citing her supervisor’s responsibilities as social worker and Welfare Department Director.
"Title 20 was the straw that broke the camel’s back,” interjected Mrs. Buntin. Under Title 20’s federally funded programs, she noted, it is her responsibility to fill out all the required purchase orders and invoices. (Programs funded through Title 20 include foster care, transportation, mental health counseling, companion and other services not provided directly by county Welfare Department personnel.)
Food stamp worker Nancy Reeve recalled that Rappahannock's Title 20 plan called for a fiscal officer.
That’s another of Mrs. Buntin’s hats, commented Ellen Mustoe.
Mrs. Buntin reported that she’d met the previous day with Supervisor Chairman E. P. Luke and accountant Walter Cox on the Welfare Department’s proposed budget for the coming year. She noted that donated Title 20 funds show up again this year in the budget as revenue.
This is confusing, she maintained, because people then assume that the donated money can be used in place of county funds to pay for services. Since the use of Title 20 funds is tightly restricted and controlled, this item shouldn’t show up in the budget as revenue, according to Mrs. Buntin.
