BACKGROUND
INFORMATION:
On April 23, 2002,
the Board of Supervisors' (Board) approved an Interagency Agreement making the
Social Services Agency (SSA) Director the designee to provide oversight and
supervision of the In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS) Public Authority
(Authority). The core functions of the Authority include the establishment and
maintenance of a registry of vetted and approved service providers, connecting
clients with service providers on the registry, and providing orientation and
training for new clients and providers.
On August 13,
2002, SSA obtained the Board's approval to appoint Robert D. Miller as the IHSS
Authority's first Executive Director until February 2016.
On August 9, 2016,
the Board approved Luz Napoles Loreto to serve as the IHSS Authority's
Executive Director for the term of August 9, 2016, through August 8, 2020.
The Executive
Director's duties were absorbed by Authority Management in between the
appointments of the second and third Executive Directors.
On January 26,
2021, the Board approved Aaron Hogue as Executive Director of the IHSS
Authority, for the term of January 26, 2021, through January 25, 2025.

January 26, 2025, through January 25, 2029. The agreement will establish an
annual salary of $132,766, along with approximately $33,792 in employee
benefits.
SSA also requests
the Board's approval to authorize the SSA Director or designee to adjust the
salary annually, provided that the annual salary paid to Aaron Hogue, including
the discretionary grant, does not exceed the advertised maximum annual salary
for a Senior Human Services Manager employee at the County of Orange.

yearly percentage increase as given to Administrative Management Unit members
of the Orange County Managers Association in accordance with their
base-building/salary range movement.

due to delays in negotiation of salary and benefits.
