Title
Consider recommendations regarding the Davis Guest Home, Inc. First Amendment to the Fiscal Years (FYs) 2022-2024 Services Agreement for Augmented Board and Care Services, as follows:
a) Approve, ratify, and authorize the Chair to execute a First Amendment to the multiyear Agreement for Services of Independent Contractor with Davis Guest Home, Inc. (not a local vendor) (BC 23-076) to add $150,000.00 in funding for FY 2023-2024 due to an unanticipated increase in intensive residential treatment services for a new total maximum contract amount not to exceed $715,000.00, consisting of $215,000.00 for FY 2022-2023 and $500,000.00 for FY 2023-2024, for the period of July 1, 2022, through June 30, 2024;
b) Delegate to the Director of the Department of Behavioral Wellness or designee the authority to suspend, delay, or interrupt the services under the Agreement for convenience per Section 20 of the Agreement, make immaterial changes to the Agreement per Section 26, and adjust the daily rate to accommodate clients with acute needs, additional monitoring needs, or medical complexity, all without altering the maximum contract amount and without requiring the Board’s approval of an amendment of the Agreement, subject to the Board’s ability to rescind this delegated authority at any time; and
c) Determine that the above actions are government funding mechanisms or other government fiscal activities which do not involve any commitment to any specific project that may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment and are therefore not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15378(b)(4) of the CEQA Guidelines.
