Service Reduction. a. If the CDDO projects it will be over its allocated funding amounts as identified in Addendum 1, or if funding reductions are executed pursuant to sections XI. B. and XI. C. of this agreement, it can take measures necessary to reduce services, including, but not limited to, across the board cuts so the CDDO’s service area remains within 100% of its allocated funds. All changes in funding will be developed by the CDDO, with input from the Council of Community Members and representatives of CSP’s. Appeals directly related to across the board cuts implemented pursuant to sections XI. B. and XI. C. will be forwarded to the Office of Administrative Hearings. b. If the CDDO determines a person whose services are funded pursuant to allocations in this agreement exceeded the amount the person needs, the CDDO should reduce the person’s services either voluntarily or involuntarily. However, the CDDO cannot reduce services involuntarily until the CDDO follows the steps outlined in the DBHS/CDDO Involuntary Service Reduction Policy.
