| Budget Issue: | Coleman Bed Expansion Vacaville Psychiatric Program - 64 Beds. |
| Program: | Department of Mental Health |
| Finding or Recommendation: | Recommend reduction of $1.8 million General Fund to reflect phased in activation of 80.3 requested positions. The Governor's budget does not adequately account for a phase-in of these positions based on the activation schedule provided by the department. |
The Governor’s budget requests 80.3 positions and $7.5 million General Fund for the second staffing phase of a court-ordered 64 bed expansion at the Vacaville Psychiatric Program.
