a) Approve and authorize the Chair to execute an Agreement for Services of Independent Contractor with Frontier Communications of America, Inc. (Frontier), for the County’s telephone services for a total maximum contract amount of $260,295.60, beginning May 7, 2024, through May 6, 2025 (Agreement);
b) Approve and Authorize the Chief Information Office (CIO), or their designee, to execute Letters of Agency to authorize the service provider, Frontier, to perform specific technical services related to the transition of telephone services;
c) Approve and authorize the CIO, or their designee, to order additional services in an amount not to exceed 10% of the contract amount, or $26,029.56; and
d) Determine that the above recommended action is a government funding mechanism or other government fiscal activity, which does not involve any commitment to any specific project that may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment and is therefore not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15378(b)(4) of the CEQA Guidelines.
