• Community Restoration (to determine competency to stand trial): <br />o Counties responsible for 20 percent of the daily cost while deemed medically necessary <br />o Counties responsible for 50 percent of the daily cost when individual no longer requires <br />program services <br />o Counties responsible for 100 percent of the daily cost if charges are dropped. Counties <br />have no ability to budget accurately for this mandate and have no appeal rights to the <br />State Department of Human Services even when there is evidence that the individual may <br />not need the level of care required by statute. <br />• Minnesota Sex Offender Program <br />o Counties responsible for ten percent of daily cost prior to August 1, 2011; 25 percent for <br />any new individuals after August 1, 2011. <br />The fiscal notes for these shifts are a moving target for counties as they depend on utilization. However, <br />the annual cost is significant and county control over them is minimal. <br />Contact Person: <br />Chris Sorensen, Director <br />Washington County Community Services <br />651-430-6455 <br />chris.sorensen@co.washington.mn.us <br />26 <br />
