Title
Consider recommendations regarding a Second Amendment to the Services Agreement with Campbellsville University for Administrative and Fiscal Intermediary Services for Southern California Regional Partnership (SCRP) Graduate and Peer Support Specialist Stipend and Pipeline Development Programs, Fiscal Years 2021-2025, as follows:
a) Approve, ratify, and authorize the Chair to execute the Second Amendment to the Agreement of Services of Independent Contractor with Campbellsville University (not a local vendor) (BC 21-143), to extend the term of the contract to end June 30, 2026, in order to align with grant funds spending deadline; and revise the terms of the Graduate Stipends to allow each county the flexibility to choose the dollar amount of stipends; and remove the maximum stipend award of $6,000.00 for Graduate Stipends; and revise the terms of Peer Stipends to allow the allotted amounts given to each county be used at each county’s discretion for either peer stipends or peer trainings; and the ability move the funds between either the peer stipends or peer support trainings with no change to the maximum contract amount of $3,930,160.00 (including administrative costs not to exceed 15%) from the date executed by the County through June 30, 2026; and
b) Determine that the above 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.
