Title
Consider recommendations regarding the Third Amendment to the Agreement with Maxim Healthcare Staffing Services, as follows:
a) Approve and authorize the Chair to execute the Third Amendment to the Agreement with Maxim Healthcare Staffing Services for substitute and temporary healthcare personnel professional services to extend the Agreement for two years for a revised end date of June 30, 2026, and to add $315,000.00 per each additional Fiscal Year, totaling $630,000.00 for a total revised Agreement amount of $2,080,000.00;
b) Approve and authorize the Public Health Director, or designee, to continue to: (1) sign Assignment Confirmation Letters or Placement Orders in accordance with Section B, Exhibit A in the Agreement; (2) add positions and/or approve rate changes not to exceed 10% of the rate currently stated in Exhibit B-1, subject to the procedures set forth in Exhibit B, Section B; and (3) make immaterial changes to the agreement so long as the total Agreement maximum is unchanged, subject to the Board’s ability to rescind this delegated authority at any time; and
c) Determine that the proposed actions do not constitute a “Project” within the meaning of California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), pursuant to Section 15378(b)(4) of the CEQA Guidelines, because they consist of the creation of government funding mechanisms or other government fiscal activities, which do not involve any commitment to any specific project which may result in a potentially significant impact on the environment.
