Title
Consider recommendations regarding a Resolution for the Designation of the Behavioral Wellness (BWell) Crisis Stabilization Unit as (CSU) Lanterman-Petris-Short (LPS) Facility, as follows:
a) Adopt a Resolution designating the Department of Behavioral Wellness Crisis Stabilization Unit located at the County’s Calle Real Campus at 305 Camino del Remedio in Santa Barbara, to be operated, staffed and services provided by Crestwood Behavioral Health, Inc., (not a local vendor), as a LPS Act (LPS) Welfare and Institutions Code Section 5150 (5150) facility;
b) Concur with the execution of a letter to the California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) requesting approval of the County designation of the Department of BWell CSU located at the County’s Calle Real Campus at 305 Camino del Remedio in Santa Barbara, to be operated, staffed and services provided by Crestwood Behavioral Health, Inc. (not a local vendor), as an LPS 5150 facility that is substantially similar to the draft provided; and
c) Determine that the above actions are organizational or administrative activities of the government that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment and are therefore not projects under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15378(b)(5) of the CEQA Guidelines.
