4. Presentation - Cascades West Economic Development District Resiliency PlanOCWCOG Executive Director Fred Abousleman described the alliance between theCommunity and Economic Development (CED) group working with the University of OregonPartnership for Disaster Resilience on a strategy update for an Economic Resiliency Plan.

Presenter Josh Bruce, Director of Oregon Partnership for Disaster Resilience with the University of Oregon, shared a PowerPoint© presentation providing an Economic Resilience Overview and shared several planning efforts as part of the Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy. The common theme throughout was that communities need to work together to prepare for recovering from a disaster.

Mayor Traber asked how far along the State of Oregon is in terms of resiliency planning; he said we need statewide planning not just regional planning. Director Bruce agreed and said there is planning, but even more can be accomplished.

Commissioner Ann Schuster said Benton County is prepared, but wonders what kind of incidents might come up that have not yet been thought of. Commissioner Schuster suggested to convene our communities to better coordinate tri-county efforts.

Executive Director Abousleman added it is not just the anticipated Cascadia earthquake to plan for, but also planning for severe fires, winter events, and major flooding. Each can be tremendously expensive, and what you think is going to happen, and what actually happens are different.

There was discussion about how a disaster would affect infrastructure and transportation, specifically road and bridge damage in the region. Councilor Jeffrey Goodwin shared he has been working on resiliency in his region and recommended visiting the website called Oregon Highways Seismic Plus Report for additional information (https://www.oregon.gov/ODOT/HWY/BRIDGE/docs/2014_Seismic_Plus_Report.pdf).

5. CWCOG Program UpdatesDirector Abousleman reported the Community and Economic Development (CED) PedalCorvallis Program has already exceeded expectations and now has 35 bikes and ninestations. The program was funded by the City of Corvallis, Benton County, and SamaritanHealth Services. Next step will be an Oregon State University launch, with more expansionlater throughout the region. The Lending Program is working on a new loan for a millingbusiness in Brownsville, Northwest Clearwoods, and a new restaurant in Corvallis openedwith the assistance of a Business Investment Fund loan.

Director Abousleman also shared he is sending out requests to schedule yearly member visits. Thanks to Halsey and Corvallis for first two successful meetings. Next visits will be to Lincoln City and Depoe Bay.

Mayor Konopa asked SDS Director Dave Toler about a Medicaid cost reductions update. SDS Director Toler said there are no reductions yet. The Legislative session will be coming up soon and the Department of Human Services (DHS) is facing huge deficit. He is currently working on how we can proactively cut costs.

6. Information SharingLincoln City: Councilor Noreikis reported a soccer game was allowed to be played on anindoor basketball court recently. The soccer ball was accidently kicked up into a fire sprinklerresulting in water damage to the hardwood court.

Scio: Councilor Nuber said Scio recently spent $50,000 to host an evening Reggae Festival on August 13, 2016 to celebrate Scio’s 150th birthday, including Czech food and polka dancing. 4

Page 6: Full Board of Directors Meeting Agenda Packet

Lebanon: Councilor Bob Elliott reported a new Starbucks, Dominos Pizza, and AT&T office is coming soon. Phase II construction of the Advanced Automobile College, through Linn-Benton Community College is underway. Samaritan Hospital continues to grow with the addition of new surgery rooms, and a new donut shop recently opened and is very popular.

Benton County: Commissioner Schuster said the Benton County Fair is in early August. Benton County will be looking into more disaster relief programs such as the ones described in the presentation. A smaller version of Da Vinci Days Festival was celebrated in July with a Kinetic Sculpture Race. The County Library will be hosting a Makers Club in September to learn about programming and electronics.

Corvallis: Mayor Traber also remarked on the rejuvenated and successful Da Vinci Days. Corvallis downtown business Coleman’s Jewelers recently opened and discovered a chemical vile problem in an old 1930’s safe. The Fire Department had to close the street and have Hazmat called in. Corvallis is suing the State of Oregon by joining Linn County on a voter approved annexation lawsuit.

Harrisburg: Councilor Sarah Puls said preparations are being made for the upcoming Harvest Festival, and they are hoping for better weather than last year’s festival.

Sweet Home: Councilor Goodwin reported the new City Hall building was purchased in the center of town. The Oregon Jamboree will be held on August 2 that will include great entertainment and food. A road closure east of Linn County will be happening soon, which will focus on repairs for the bridge. He also said there could be a huge economic opportunity if the entire road was repaired for visitors going to the coast.

Halsey: Councilor Ken Lorensen reported on the one-year anniversary celebration for the Halsey Library. A 5K run was held to raise funds. For a small community, the Library has had high attendance, and has several successful programs, including the Summer Reading Program and a bike course event where children received brand new bike helmets free. The helmets were donated and volunteers fixed any bicycle that needed repair for free.

Albany: Mayor Konopa said the River Rhythms Concerts have returned twice a week this summer on Monday and Thursday nights. There was rain for the first few concerts, but everyone who attended had a good time. The City is undergoing a lot of construction at the moment, and South Albany High School’s cafeteria was recently rebuilt. A new bid for $20 million was awarded to build the new jail, and a new fire station will be built. WinCo plans to open a new Albany store at the old Kmart location, and the Art and Air Festival will be happening next month.

7. Other BusinessExecutive Director Abousleman acknowledged Lee Lazaro and thanked him for histremendous help with both the Transportation Brokerage Advisory Committee, and theHealth and Economic Summit.

TO: OCWCOG Board of Directors

FROM: Sue Forty, Finance Director

RE: PERS Reserve Update

The Oregon Supreme Court recently overturned the State Legislatures 2013 reforms of the Public Employees Retirement System (PERS) that were aimed at controlling long-term liability. Furthermore, lower than expected investment returns and changes in economic assumptions have created an unfunded liability for the pension system that every state and local agency that is a PERS member will have to cover. The long-term liability fix will begin in 2017 and last until 2021.

The OCWCOG Board of Directors established a PERS Reserve Liability Account in 2004 to address similar issues of off-setting a PERS increase. OCWCOG will be faced with a similar situation in the coming biennium(s).

The Reserve Liability Account is mandated to only be used to offset PERS costs. Funds cannot be used for any other activity. In the case of lower than expected increases (or no increase), programs would be credited back funds ONLY to their PERS expense line-item.

OCWCOG has determined through a review of estimated actuarial information provided by PERS that starting in 2017 fiscal year, OCWCOG PERS will begin to increase on an average of 20% of total wages each year. The increase for 2017 fiscal year will be approximately $300,000.00 for the organization.

OCWCOG requests approval to activate and use the PERS Reserve Liability Account starting with the September 2016 payroll to help offset escalating costs for the organization.

OCWCOG will be contributing 3% of total monthly payroll costs by program into the PERS Reserve Liability Account. These funds will not cover the total cost of the increase, but will help buffer additional costs moving forward, thereby limiting the compounding effect on our budget, staffing, and program delivery.

If you find you need additional information or clarification, please contact Finance Director Forty.

FROM: Dave Toler, Senior and Disability Services Director

RE: Senior and Disabilities (SDS) Program Report

Oregon Cascades West Council of Governments’ Area Plan 2017-2020 Executive Summary

Introduction In accordance with the Older Americans Act, the Oregon State Unit on Aging (SUA) requires every Area Agency on Aging & Disabilities in Oregon to develop and submit a four-year Area Plan. The Area Plan is intended to provide a compass for program direction and prioritization for the next four years. Once a plan largely generated by local issues and concerns, the content of today’s Area Plans are primarily defined and driven by the SUA.

OCWCOG’s Senior and Disabilities Service Department is requesting that the Oregon Cascades West Council of Governments’ Board of Directors review the OCWCOG’s 2017-2020 Area Plan prior to its submission in October 2016.

Given that the Area Plan is 150-200 pages, below is an Executive Summary. For those who would like to see the Area Plan in its entirety, a full edition of the Area Plan will be available after September 19th at www.ocwcog.org/seniors-disability.

Mission, Vision, Values Mission: Senior and Disability Services (SDS) has a mission to enhance the independence,

dignity, choice, and individual well-being for all aging people and people with disabilities in the Linn, Benton, and Lincoln County region.

Vision: SDS holds a vision of serving as the regional experts in aging and disability services, and supporting the regional population to maintain health, wellness, and access to programs when needed.

Values:

Service Equity

High Quality Services

Innovation

Community Collaboration

Combatting Adult Abuse

A Challenging and Rewarding Workplace

Page 13: Full Board of Directors Meeting Agenda Packet

Planning and Review Process The planning process used for the development of this Area Plan has been underway since the completion of the last Plan in 2013. The needs assessment for this Plan, conducted over the last four years, is based on a combination of community outreach, input from SDS direct services staff, the Senior Services Advisory Council, Disability Services Advisory Council, management, and statistical analysis of our Region’s older and disabled population.

Three surveys have been conducted during the planning process including a Family Caregiver Survey, a Consumer survey, and a Community Partner survey. In addition, with this Plan we are emphasizing two underserved populations: Siletz tribal members and the LGBT community. Focus Groups were held with both groups to gather input on service gaps.

Prioritization of Discretionary Funding A small amount of funding received by SDS is discretionary. SDS looks to our Advisory Councils to help determine the priorities for this limited funding. The following priorities are being proposed for the 2017-2020 Area Plan:

Meals on Wheels: current service level, along with restoration of frozen meals onweekends

Family Caregiver Support Program: respite, supplemental services, and training forcaregivers

Behavioral health supports

Expansion of the Money Management Program

Care Transitions: Hospital to Home Program: A complete description of this program hasbeen included in Section C-4.

Options Counseling

Service Area Profile From a socio-economic perspective, the prevalence of poverty for the tri-County Region’s 65+ years old population runs slightly below the Oregon average.

Probably the most significant demographic note is that according to the 2015 U.S. Census estimates, there were 62,849 older adults age 60+ in the three Counties combined. This accounts for 25% of the total population of these Counties. Population trends continue to point to a relatively fast increase in the proportion of older residents in the region. While total population grew by approximately 2,100 residents in the last five years, in the same period the older population in the region has increased by nearly 10,000.

Issue Areas The heart of the Area Plan focuses on the six Issue Areas specified by the Oregon SUA. The following is a brief summary of each area for our region:

Information & Assistance Information & Assistance is primarily delivered through the Aging and Disability Resource Connection (ADRC) call center. This past year, OCWCOG has averaged approximately 800-900 calls each month.

The goal for this next four years is to better ensure our consumers that they truly have a No Wrong Door (NWD) experience when they contact SDS. NWD assures the consumer that once they contact SDS for anything, we will either provide them what they need at that time, or we will reach out to them for further assistance or guidance. With NWD, the frustrating search for the consumer to find the precise person or resource they need is over once they enter our system.

Nutrition Services The Meals On Wheels (MOW) is a critical program for our older adults and people with disabilities. This Area Plan focuses primarily on making the program sustainable. The identified problem is a $225,000 deficit, which cannot be sustained for much longer. 12

Page 14: Full Board of Directors Meeting Agenda Packet

The Area Plan spells out several goals to strengthen the viability of the MOW program including:

Increasing individual contribution

Increasing business sponsorships

Increasing local government investment

Stabilize the volunteer base

Another goal is to look at ways to reverse what has been a downward trend in dining participation at meals sites over the last ten years. This will primarily involve working with community partners to add other activities before and after meal times.

Health Promotion SDS receives a relatively small amount of funding specifically tied to health promotion programs. However, the Medicare programs SDS administers to ensure low income households have health coverage, SNAP food benefits, and Long-Term Care funding play a key role in stabilizing a person’s mental and physical health. With guidance from both the Senior Services Advisory Council and Disability Services Advisory Council, for the next four years SDS will be putting a stronger emphasis on mental health support for our communities. The goal is to expand the availability of the Program to Encourage Active and Rewarding Lives (PEARLS), an in-home program for people suffering from mild to moderate depression. Another related goal will be to address a serious service gap for those individuals and their families confronted with a dementia disease. These diseases are the fast growing epidemic in our nation and yet effective treatments and services are sorely lacking.

Family Caregiver Support Program Supporting family caregivers ensures that people can live in their homes longer and protects one of the most valuable assets in our Long-Term Services and Supports system: the unpaid caregiver. Guided by our overall goal to better serve Siletz tribe and LGBT communities, this Area Plan calls for more emphasis on providing these supports to family caregivers in these communities.

Elder Rights and Legal Assistance Efforts to stop or prevent elder abuse and abuse of younger adults with disabilities is a very high priority for OCWCOG. The Adult Protective Services (APS) unit is currently averaging approximately 50 investigations each month. One goal will be to ensure that investigations are completed in a timely manner to ensure that funding for the program is secured.

Although the funding for education and prevention is extremely limited, a second goal will be to target a specific media campaign that addresses the issue of abuse and promotes the awareness that abuse of our elders and people with disabilities is simply never okay. Similar campaigns in the domestic violence arena proved effective in the 1980s and 1990s.

Native American Elders A focus group was held at the Siletz Community Clinic to inform SDS on the service gaps that tribal members are confronting. This plan’s goals include establishing on-going quarterly meetings with Siletz staff and tribal members, co-hosting semi-annual elder abuse prevention forums in the Siletz community, and ensuring that ADRC information is well placed in locations throughout the Siletz community. One elder rights forum has already been held at Siletz and APS has been able to assist some individuals who were in vulnerable situations.

FY2015 - 2016 Financial Narrative (Revenue)

a. OCWCOG has a balanced budget, as seen on the Net/Gain (Loss) FY2015-2016 Budget.The budget numbers reflect the supplemental budget adopted on January 21, 2016.

b. Member dues have all been received and distributed.c. Contract revenue is low. The Board adopted a supplemental budget that increased the

contract revenue total by $703,555.00. The Non-Emergent Medical Transportation pilotprogram represents $477,750.00 of this increase. Pedal Corvallis, the bikeshare project,recently launched, and we are in the process of billing for this project.

d. Year-to-date grant revenue is up due to recording grants in the correct line item andadditional grant awards to the RSVP and Foster Grand Parent programs.

e. Donations revenue is down for the year. The organization has entered into a contract withan independent resource development firm to assist in obtaining larger donations for theprogram. The Meals on Wheels program is working on a direct mail project that shouldlaunch in October 2016.

f. The organization’s State contracts are low. Both the metropolitan planning organizations(MPO) were awarded additional small contacts that are being billed instead of the OregonDepartment of Transportation (ODOT) contract.

g. Federal revenue is low due to the intergovernmental agreement (IGA) being awarded forless than was budgeted. We anticipated and budgeted a six percent (6%) increase over theprior year and received less.

h. Coordinated Care revenue is high due to a cost settlement to bring the actual cost inline.

FY2015 - 2016 Financial Narrative (Personnel and Material & Supplies)

a. The organization’s Personnel Expense is below budget due to several vacant positions notfilled. OCWCOG has implemented a process to determine the need to rapidly fill all vacantpositions.

b. Contract expense is coming in high. Part of this increase is due to the Senior and DisabilityServices’ home care workers wage and overtime increase negotiated in their CollectiveBargaining Agreement and additional Brokerage providers being paid.

c. Indirect expenses are on budget. Indirect rates are charged to all program areas based onthe number of staff employed in each program, and are used to fund GeneralAdministration, Human Resources, Finance, and Technology Services.

d. Maintenance & Repair expenses are low. New projects have been slow to ramp up and willstart in the FY2016-2017.

e. The organization has implemented a centralized purchasing program, which is controllingthe supply costs. We reduced the FY2015-2016 budget by $51,971 and spend only 58% ofthe budgeted funds during the year.

f. Telephone costs are starting to show the reduction in costs anticipated by the changesmade in providers and equipment purchases in FY2014-2015.

g. Travel/Training is low. The organization management staff have been reviewing staff travelto ensure the best use of staff time and program expenses.
