B. Financial Report
The Board Financial Report was reviewed and approved. Director Randy Jones provided the overview and
highlighted salaries overage and the rationale along with the budget in the contractual category. The license fees
will be transferred to the SD Pharmacist’s Association on December 31st and June 30th. Revenue reports did
show “0” which was due to waiting for the grant extension for the PDMP program. The extension was granted,
however, future funding will be needed to maintain the program.

C. Staff Reports
1. Employee Update: We currently have 1.75 FTE’S for inspectors with .25 FTE currently unused. It is suggested
to have a .25 FTE in the NE area of the state. This would enable someone to complete inspections in the area and
decrease travel costs for current inspectors to travel to this area.
