Title
Consider recommendations regarding a revised Resolution authorizing the Department of Behavioral Wellness Director to act on behalf of the County in connection with the award of State Pet Assistance and Support (PAS) Program Grant funds, as follows:
a) Adopt a revised PAS Resolution, as required by the State of California Department of Housing and Community Development (State HCD), that authorizes and directs the Director of the Department of Behavioral Wellness or designee to act on behalf of the County in connection with an award of PAS Program Grant funds and to execute the Standard Agreement and any subsequent amendments or modifications as well as any other documents which are related to the PAS program or the PAS program grant awarded to the County;
b) Approve, ratify, and authorize the Director of the Department of Behavioral Wellness or designee to execute on behalf of the County a Standard Agreement with State HCD and any subsequent amendments or modifications thereto, as well as any other documents which are related to the PAS program or the PAS program grant awarded to the County, as State HCD may deem appropriate without having to return to the Board for approval, subject to the Board’s authority to rescind this delegated authority at any time;
c) Direct the Director of the Department of Behavioral Wellness or designee to obtain concurrence from Risk Management, Auditor-Controller, and County Counsel before exercising the authority delegated pursuant to Recommended Action b); and
d) Determine that the recommended actions are not the approval of a project that is subject to environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(5) and 15378(b)(4), finding that the recommended actions consist of administrative or fiscal activities of governments that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.
