"It’s also a good thing from the agency’s position because the subsidy is generally less than the regular foster care rate,” Mrs. Buntin added. "But the subsidy can’t be paid out of ADC foster care funds. It has to come from regular foster care,” a category with 50 per cent local funds as opposed to no local funds.
Administrative salaries also show a slight increase of approximately three per cent, going from $83,151 in the current fiscal year to $86,143 in the proposed budget.
Mrs. Buntin attributed the increases to meeting the locally adopted salary plan. She noted that the state’s decision to eliminate the bottom step of the scale while adding an additional step at the top had affected administrative costs here in that the Rappahannock Welfare Board had moved each employee up one notch on the new scale to keep up with inflation.
Mrs. Buntin told her board members that she wasn’t yet prepared to submit the proposed social services budget to the supervisors. She explained that the auditor’s tally on last year’s welfare cost doesn’t agree with her figures.
The auditor shows total expenditures for the year ended June 30, 1979, as $123,694.25. “Our records show we spent approximately $2,100 more than he said we did,” Mrs. Buntin noted.
