Responsible management of taxpayer resources has resulted in an increase in the county’s credit rating, reduction in debt costs, lit- tle to no increase in medical claims costs per employee for four years in a row, and sev- eral local, state and national awards. In 2018, Lane County was ranked as the No. 1 healthiest public employer in Oregon and the No. 40 healthiest em- ployer in the nation. “The financial stability we have created is the result of focused efforts to proactive- ly manage and reduce inter- nal expenses, such as PERS, health insurance and debt costs,” said County Admin- istrator Steve Mokrohisky. “This stability has allowed us to put more funding into di- rect services to our residents and to reinvest in services that improve lives in our communities.” One of the most notable investments in the proposed budget is the use of $1 mil- lion in one-time prior year property tax settlement funds from Comcast to seed the creation of a 24-hour/7- day-per-week behavioral crisis center to divert people experiencing a mental health or substance abuse crisis away from jail and emergen- cy rooms. The proposed center will use evidence-based practic- es to treat mental health and substance abuse issues while lowering costs to the over- all public safety system. The county is working to identify additional community part- ners, starting with those in- volved in the Mental Health Summit, to help launch this center. “Right now, more than six out of 10 inmates in the Lane County Jail have a doc- umented mental illness or substance abuse disorder,” said Mokrohisky. “We can and must do better to address the root causes of homeless- ness, while improving com- munity safety and lowering the cost to our taxpayers.” Additionally, the proposed budget includes funding to implement the first phase of the Public Shelter Feasibility Study to efficiently and ef- fectively make use of existing resources. Lane County and the City of Eugene approved the study earlier this year Heraej=bbkn`]^haHqtqnu Assisted Living and Memory Care Apartments Our beautiful community is designed for those who need assistance or have memory impairments.
