Explanation
(This amendment reduces the general fund by $2.0 million the second year that was contained in the introduced budget to re-open one 20-bed geriatric unit at the Southwestern Virginia Mental Health Institute in Marion. Chapter 874 of the 2010 Virginia Acts of Assembly reduced funding and closed one 20-bed geriatric unit at the Institute effective July 1, 2010. Discharges and transfers have taken place since that time which has enabled the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services to close the unit.)
