The executive director receives a salary of $18,100 per year, which includes
a separate allotment for housing off institutional grounds. The new
home adjacent to the Nursing Home is presently occupied by the staff
physician.
The 1970 budget of the Home is $1.9 million and is expected to be offset
by the income. Present rates at the Home are $12 per day in the old section
(remodeled) and $15 per day in the new wing. This cost includes all care
available at the Home, and the facility is eligible for federal nursing
programs.
The Home has been completely modernized in recent years and now
includes clinical facilities, new recreational areas, beauty and barber shop,
therapy rooms, enlarged kitchen and dining facilities, new lobby and entrance,
and elevators.
DRAINAGE BOARD
The drainage board is an ex-officio board composed of the county commissioners
and the county surveyor. It has responsibility for building and
maintenance of public drains. The board determines practicality of drainage
construction after petitions are filed with the board. The board ascertains
assessments against affected property owners on the basis of benefits to be
realized. The surveyor is the technical authority and makes necessary
studies and prepares specifications, as well as supervising construction.
MEMORIAL COLISEUM
Management of the Coliseum is vested in a board of five trustees, appointed
on a non-partisan basis for the term of four years. Two are named
by the Circuit Court Judge and three by the County Commissioners. They
serve without remunumeration. Although all contracts for purchases must be
let by the County Commissioners, the board has wide discretion in its
operation. The trustees appoint a Manager at a salary of $14,500 per year.
The budget is submitted to the County Council annually and the County
Auditor audits its books. Due to its extensive use for various activities
the Coliseum is self-sustaining.
PRINTING DEPARTMENT
A printing department is maintained by the County. It is operated on a
full time basis and prints most of the small forms and supplies for the
county offices. It is presently under the direction of the County Purchasing
agent.
HISTORICAL SOCIETY
Funds for the operation of the Allen County Historical Museum are
received from the County and from membership dues. The board, elected
from the membership, employs a Curator and necessary staff. The Curator is
paid $8,700 per year. The Fort Wayne Park Board maintains the museum
grounds and makes major repairs to the building.
