Discussion:
The Board of Supervisors established the Sonoma County In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS) Public Authority on June 5, 2001, pursuant to Welfare & Institutions Code § 12301.6(a)(2). The Public Authority is an independent public entity, with the members of the Board of Supervisors serving as the Board of Directors. The purpose of the Public Authority is twofold: (1) to act as the employer of record for individual IHSS care providers for the purpose of collective bargaining over wages, hours, and other conditions of employment and (2) to provide State-mandated functions of referral, registry, screening, and training to IHSS consumers and providers.
To avoid duplication of administrative systems, the Board of Supervisors and the Board of Directors designated the Human Services Department as the administrative liaison to the IHSS Public Authority, and directed the Public Authority to utilize county services through an interagency agreement. The Director of Human Services Department (HSD) oversees the Public Authority Manager through this interagency agreement. Operationally, the Public Authority resides in the Adult and Aging Services Division, and the Public Authority Manager reports to the In-Home Supportive Services Section Manager.
Michael Humphrey was hired as the first Public Authority Manager through an employment contract effective March 4, 2002 to March 5, 2005. Mr. Humphrey’s employment contract was renewed on March 15, 2005, March 11, 2008, March 1, 2011, February 25, 2014, and March 7, 2017.
Mr. Humphrey has demonstrated effective leadership and competent management of the IHSS Public Authority and has earned the respect of the IHSS Public Authority Advisory Committee. It is recommended that Mr. Humphrey be kept at the “I” step of the salary range for IHSS Public Authority Manager in the attached contract renewal.
