BACKGROUND:
|
In November 2004, Mental Health Services issued a Request For Proposals (RFP) for consulting services to assist the planning process for the MHSA. Eight proposals were received, and Gibson & Associates was selected to provide these services.
|
|
In February 2005, the County Manager approved an agreement with this contractor for FY 2004-06. Since that time Gibson & Associates has provided the following services: facilitation of Adult and Older Adult MHSA Planning Task Force; shared facilitation of the MHSA Steering Committee; facilitation of focus groups; database development; best practices research; and drafting of the Adult and Older Adult portions of the MHSA Three-Year Plan.
|
|
DISCUSSION:
|
The Agreement is being amended to add facilitation and planning tasks related to the implementation of the MHSA Three-Year Plan and to increase the maximum contract obligation to accommodate the additional services.
|
|
The amendment includes all provisions that are required by county ordinance and administrative memoranda, including but not limited to insurance, hold harmless, non-discrimination, equal benefits and jury service policy.
|
|
The term of this amended Agreement remains February 1, 2005 through June 30, 2006. The amendment has been reviewed and approved by Risk Management and County Counsel.
|
|
FISCAL IMPACT:
|
The amended Agreement maximum is being increased by $17,105 to a new maximum of $109,170. The amended maximum for FY 2005-06 is $40,121 which is included in the approved Mental Health Services budget for FY 2005-06. Services will be funded 100% by MHSA funds. There is no Net County Cost associated with approval of this amendment.
