www.pacificgrove.com points out – that’s $92,000 per person.
While demand for its services remains steady, the Gateway Center of Monterey County’s funding has gone down in recent months. Now, it has to fix an elevator that won’t go up.
State funding for the Pacific Grove facility for the developmentally disabled was cut by 3 percent in February . . .
. . . The Pacific Grove Gateway is home to 41 developmentally disabled people.
The center started the fiscal year with a $3.8 million budget, but with the February cut and declining donations, the center’s income for the year is projected at $3.3 million, Gateway President and CEO Kathleen Adamson said.
$43.8M for 41 residents = about $92,000 per. Send them to harvard for only $65,000 per year. On resident fell out of a window once.
Ooops that should be $3.8M not $43.8M, which would be nice. Maybe I can get a room there.
Handy, be careful what you wish for.
