Title
Consider recommendations regarding Fiscal Year 2015-2016 Alcohol, Drug and Mental Health Services (ADMHS) Out-of-County Client Services Agreements, as follows:
a) Approve, ratify and authorize the Chair to execute an Agreement for Services of Independent Contractor with Aurora Vista del Mar Hospital (not a local vendor), for the provision of Acute Inpatient Services, for a total contract amount not to exceed $2,000,000.00 for the period of July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016;
b) Approve, ratify and authorize the Chair to execute an Agreement for Services of Independent Contractor with California Psychiatric Transitions (not a local vendor), an Institution for Mental Disease, for a total contract amount not to exceed $250,000.00 for the period of July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016; and
c) Determine that these activities are exempt from California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review per CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(5) since the recommended actions are government administrative activities which do not involve commitment to any specific project which may result in potentially significant physical impact on the environment.
