Title

Consider recommendations regarding a Conversion of Purchase Contract BLO4975 to a Board Contract and Amendment of the Agreement with American Medical Response West for Non-Emergency Transport Services for COVID-19 Response, as follows:

 

a) Approve, ratify, and authorize the Chair to execute an Agreement for Services of Independent Contractor with American Medical Response West, to continue providing non-emergency transport services and symptom assessments for suspected and confirmed COVID-19 sheltered clients. This Agreement converts a Purchase Contract to a Board Contract, extends the term 4 months for a revised term of April 7, 2020 through September 30, 2020, and increases funding by $100,000.00 for a revised total amount not to exceed $250,000.00, inclusive of $150,000.00 under Purchase Contract BLO4975, but which otherwise cancels, nullifies, and supersedes Purchase Contract BLO4975; and

 

b) Determine that the proposed action does not constitute a “Project” within the meaning of California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), pursuant to Section 15378(b)(4) of the CEQA Guidelines, because it consists of the creation of a government funding mechanism or other government fiscal activities, which does not involve any commitment to any specific project which may result in a potentially significant impact on the environment.
