E. Reports to Commission  
1. Todd Campbell--Transportation Relocation and transition.  
Dane County Human Services Adult Community Services Division Administrator Todd  
Campbell updated the commission on changes coming to the Transportation  
Department. Dane County DOA approved double filling the Transportation Coordinator  
position so there will be overlap and training available for the new Coordinator.  
Transportation policies are being updated and complied to assist with a smooth transition  
for a new coordinator. Transportation will be moving from the Northport office and  
integrated into the ADRC building. ADRC Manager Jennifer Fischer will supervise the  
Transportation Coordinator and Mobility Specialist. Moving Transportation will gain more  
infrastructure for the department. The Mobility Specialist will still be answering calls for  
transportation with I&A’s from ADRC being back up to assist with overload of work and  
vacation time.
