4:03 am
to 91%. taking that in consideration the yeesh end forecast for fee revenue increased by 600,000. iil to operating expense. on thepe expensefront, as tonya talked about, we have budgeted for the infrastructure upgrade n we have budgeted about upon 1.5million. that allocate across choice
4:04 am
we anticipate that the increase inon will be about 300,000. on to emergency housin voucher. as you see we t same thing■ where we increased the admin 3 rate for leases that went on to the emergencyus. plus increased the forecast we had for t emergency housing vouchers for the remarnof the year. that lead to an increase of about the admin fee subsidy revenue we got from hud.th expe
4:05 am
sly the expense increas in the admin fee revenue. and thosenc in thende revenue. it is a wash. butrhan that, the expenses are in line with what we forecasted. this were approved budget. moving on to the central office call center. the revenue is i talk bodies increase in fee expenses. now capped in the and so that [inaudible] fee revenue. the expense increase by 267,000 th revenue by 267,000.

4:10 am
which is really have been, been necessary and has been a lot of work and part of that and know there and a necessary r staffing. so. there a connection between the addition fee?e ability.■ when we talk about resources to be able to haverst
4:11 am
authority at our polic level? f towards- needed? staffing for instance, people can work hard, really long for of time sustain able to ask f in that manner and so -- there are many ways to address that. there are ways to address tech logically and policy and procedure changes and other will the admin fee go toward that or is thatferenty to build foundationo answer your over al question yes.■u the admin fee that we get which is through t increase we
4:12 am
talked about will cover the expense for each programs. of different programs when we are going to delivere the board in in finance we taking on we lost people in finance reduction and cost am so we looked at stream lini operations. to over come. the deficits. the majority of the and■& tonya speak to. >> thank you. commiser kim for that question. so some of the fees can increas staffing and then some of the fees end up on the
4:13 am
contractor side as well. tell be a■y■ conversio where ar the fgoing? so because some of the fees are contractk.or■[■÷
4:14 am
yes. one of the tasks one of thirst talking about. is having enough staffing adding additional staffing. they were talking about this today without me as we prepa for this meeting. not to give me an additional thing to about that is one to strengthen our to do contract monitoring you are right that is
