SCORE – APRIL/May 2015:
Mr. Ariwoola reviewed the SCORE Financial Summary for April /May 2015. Mr. Ariwoola responded via email to
Councilmember Celski regarding questions that he had. SCORE is exploring bringing medical services in-house
rather than contracting with a vendor. Early figures indicate that it would not cost SCORE any more and the
benefits include increasing the level of service and more stability with medical staff retention. The SCORE

savings and benefits it provides the City. No further action necessary.
