Basically the Center is the Local Management Entities created as part of the 2001 reform to coordinate and manage community mental health services in different regions of the state.

By the way, the LMEs were given wide latitude by the state and their lack of accountability is identified as a real poser by state officials and lawmakers and it’s clear they’ve been right.

The audit found that the Center Director Charles Franklin’s base salary of dollarsign 282663 was far higher than any other LME Director in the state and almost 5 times more than top Director in North Carolina and they wanted to keep him.

Jordan surely led the league in scoring many times and won six championships. Actually the audit found that using the Department of Health and Human Services Progress Indicators, the Center’s performance was below the state average in many areas. Special Assistant to the Director earns dollarsign 142848, slightly more than the Director of the Mecklenburg County LME who oversees a budget more than three times as large as the Albemarle Mental Health Center.

No other LME has a position at this pay level. Franklin’s pay ain’t a solitary salary the audit mentions. Other LMEs formed an association and hired lobbyists to represent their collective interests. And therefore the audit also finds that the Center spent dollarsign 76000 on lobbyist services in 2006 to hire Don Beason and his son Mark. While as indicated by forms filed with Secretary of State’s office, the Center paid Beason and his son dollarsign 15500 for 2006, far short of the dollarsign 76000 the auditor found. Charging clients for consulting services and not reporting them as lobbying expenses is fairly common. So it’s another example of how underreported lobbyists’ compensation is as well as how much the Center spent above and beyond other LMEs on consultant contracts. There was plenty more in Merritt’s report, expenses being paid for Board members and their spouses at resorts, improper use of state and federal funds to pay salaries, and inadequate documentation of services. Notice that the audit allows the Center staff to respond to any point and they do, sometimes claiming that the Center has unique problems because of the rural nature of the counties it serves and identical times pointing to a serious systemic problem with mental health reform across the state.

That’s not very reassuring. Basically the audit didn’t address media reports about the Center’s dollarsign 30000 contract with a Raleigh public relations firm or the role that the obsession with privatization plays in the problems providing services. Their job is to spend public dollars as wisely as possible to provide quality mental health services to people who need them. We shall hope so. State officials are taking steps to respond to the audit’s finding that fiscal monitoring of all LMEs needs to improve. Seems like the LMEs need a big bit more monitoring and supervision. It is mcCrory. You see, the Atlantic Coast Conference now has joined the NCAA in pulling its championships from North Carolina thanks to HBGov. Usually, mcCrory seems content to wait for the courts to settle the problem. So, whenever bringing to dollarsign 3 million its investment on behalf of Republican Sen, the National Rifle Association Wednesday began a brand new round of TV ads against Democratic Senate candidate Deborah Ross.

Democratic legislators call for special session to repeal House Bill 2 -Winston Salem Journal.

North Carolina continues to suffer from McCrory’s bungled wedge issue.

Editorial. Then, barringer calls for HB2 repeal, faces criticism from reelection opponent. Charlotte didn’t pass just a bathroom ordinance. Lawmakers may repeal HB2 only if Charlotte agrees not to protect LGBT folks from discrimination. No thanks. Repeal of Charlotte ordinance a dreadful idea. Needless to say, john Locke Fdtn. Expert.
