The present tax is set at 8.5˘ per $100 assessed value and generates approximately $16 million annually. In fiscal year 2005 (July 1, 2004 - June 30, 2005), the Board has contracted with 46 different agencies that will provide services to more than 4,300 individuals with developmental disabilities. Our Mission To provide, within available funds, a planned program of Residential and Vocational services for St. Louis County citizens with developmental disabilities, which promotes community participation and positive community relations does not duplicate the mandates of other public agencies. and complies with the mandates for assistance to persons with developmental disabilities as set forth in Sections 205.968 through 205.972 RSMo.   Most reports on our website require viewing with the Adobe Acrobat Reader.
