SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
A. Approve and authorize Health Services Director, or his
designee (Wendel Brunner, M.D. ) , to execute on behalf of the
County, Master Grant Agreement #29-388-19 (State #96-25639)
with the State Department of Health Services, for the period
from July 1, 1996 through June 30, 1997 , in the amount of
$1, 176,719, to fund the County's AIDS Program during FY 1996-
97; and

to execute a Memorandum of Understanding for each component
of the County's AIDS Program upon receipt of each document
from the State Department of Health Services.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
8
Approval of this agreement by the State will result in $1, 176,719
for the County' s AIDS Program during FY 1996-97 . No County funds
are required.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONSIBACKGROUND:
The Master Grant Agreement procedure was initiated by the State in
FY 1989-90 to streamline the contracting process between the State
�- --� and local health jurisdictions for AIDS Program funding.
The Master Grant Agreement incorporates a Memorandum of Under-
standing -(MOU) for each service component of the AIDS program
which defines the services to be provided and the budget. The
MOUs are negotiated by staff of the State Office of AIDS and the
_ County's AIDS Program representatives. The State requires only
that the MOUS be signed by the State Office of AIDS Chief and the
County's Health Officer. This streamlines and expedites the
contracting procedure for the AIDS Program, as only the Master
Grant Agreement and any formal amendments to the Master Grant
Agreement require County Board of Supervisors and State Department
of Finance approval.
Four sealed/certified copies of this Board Order should be
returned to the Contracts and Grants Unit for submission to the
State Department of Health Services.
