(b) After depositing funds to the social services account allocated to a county or city and county pursuant to Section 17605 and after reallocating funds from both the health account and mental health account of the local health and welfare trust fund under subdivision (a), a county may reallocate up to an additional 10 percent of the money from the health account to the social services account in the 1992–93 fiscal year and fiscal years thereafter, for caseload increases for mandated social services programs listed in paragraph (2) of subdivision (b) of Section 17605 in excess of revenue growth in the social services account.
(c) (1) A county, city, or city and county shall, at a regularly scheduled public hearing of its governing body, document that any decision to make any substantial change in its allocation of mental health, social services, or health trust fund moneys among services, facilities, programs, or providers as a result of reallocating funds pursuant to subdivision (a), (b), or (d) was based on the most cost-effective use of available resources to maximize client outcomes.
(2) Any county or city and county that reallocates funds pursuant to subdivision (b) shall document, at a regularly scheduled public hearing of the board of supervisors, that the net social services caseload has increased beyond the revenue growth in the social services account.
(3) Any county, city, or city and county that is required to document any reallocation of funds pursuant to paragraphs (1) and (2) shall forward a copy of the documentation to the Controller. The Controller shall make copies of the documentation available to the Legislature and to other interested parties, upon request.
(d) In addition to subdivision (a), a county or city and county may reallocate up to an additional 10 percent of the money from the social services account to the mental health account or the health account in the 1993–94 fiscal year and fiscal years thereafter when there exist in the social services account revenues in excess of the amount necessary to fund mandated caseload costs, pursuant to paragraph (2) of subdivision (b) of Section 17605, as determined by the county board of supervisors, as a result of implementation of personal care services or other program changes.
