a) Approve, ratify and authorize the Director of Behavioral Wellness or designee to execute the First Amendment to the FYs 2013-2018 MHP Agreement No. 12-89394 with the California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) to revise the contract end date from June 30, 2018 to June 30, 2017;
b) Approve, ratify and authorize the Director of Behavioral Wellness to execute a new retroactive $0 five-year County MHP Agreement No. 17-94613 with the California DHCS for the provision of Medi-Cal Specialty Mental Health Services for the period of July 1, 2017 to June 30, 2022;
c) Consider and approve Behavioral Wellness, through subsequent Board action, amending only the active FY 2018-2019 Mental Health providers’ contracts for the provision of Medi-Cal Specialty Mental Health Services and not pursuing retroactive amendments to expired FY 2017-2018 provider contracts; and
d) Determine that the above actions are government fiscal activities or funding mechanisms which do not involve any commitment to any specific project which may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment, and are therefore not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to section 15378(b)(4) of the CEQA guidelines.
