Title
Consider recommendations regarding a California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES) Electronic Suspected Child Abuse Reporting System Program (E-SCARS) Grant Award, Subaward No. ES19 02 0420, as follows:
a) Adopt a Resolution approving, ratifying, and authorizing the District Attorney to execute a Grant Agreement with Cal OES accepting the E-SCARS grant award for the current award period of January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020 in the amount of $250,000.00;
b) Approve and authorize the District Attorney to execute any future amendments or extensions thereof through June 30, 2021, not to exceed $50,000.00, with the concurrence of County Counsel and Auditor-Controller; and
c) Determine that the above action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(4), because it consists 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 physical impact on the environment, and approve the filing of a Notice of Exemption on that basis.
