Operating Budget Addenda (in order of greatest impact)
Replaces lost federal funding so that a vacant educator position can be hired to serve the Northern Virginia region. Education coordinators help infants, children and youth with vision loss reduce developmental delays and improve progress in school. Currently, the Northern Virginia workload is being shared by staff in other regions; however this short term solution cannot be maintained, as there are only five other coordinators statewide, without an adverse impact on services.
Moves FY 2016 savings included in Item 471 of Chapter 2, 2014 Acts of Assembly, Special Session I, from Central Appropriations to applicable agency budgets. These amounts are not a part of the additional savings assumed in Chapter 3, 2014 Acts of Assembly, Special Session I (HB 5010).
This amendment provides funding for needed equipment in the Radio Reading Services program. The funding for this program has been reduced over the years and now it has reached a point where additional resources are needed to replace necessary equipment to meet the needs of the blind and vision-impaired population.
