SUBJECT: Retroactive Payment to Antonio G. Britto (dba Concord Transportation

SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Ratify purchase of services from Antonio G. Britto (dba Concord
Transportation Services - Sal's Taxi of Martinez) for the period from
July 1, 1996 through June 30, 1997 and authorize the County Auditor-
Controller to pay $4, 000 outstanding balance for said services.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
This contract is included in the Health Services Department Enterprise
I Budget.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND:
On July 9, 1996, the County Board of Supervisors approved Contract
#26-158-15 with Antonio G. Britto (dba Concord Transportation Services
- Sal 's Taxi of Martinez) , for the period from July 1, 1996 through
June 30, 1997, with a payment limit of $108, 000, for provision of
transportation services for the Merrithew Memorial Hospital patients.
Services were requested and provided beyond the payment limit and by
the end of June, 1997 charges of $112, 000 had been incurred, of which
$108, 000 had been paid and $4, 000 remains outstanding.
Transportation services were both requested by County staff 'and
provided by the Contractor in good faith. Because of administrative
oversight by both the County and Contractor, use of transportation
services exceeded the authorized limits.
The Department is requesting that the amount due the Contractor be
paid. This can be accomplished by the Board of Supervisors ratifying
the actions of the County employees in obtaining provision of
transportation services of a value in excess of the contract payment
limit. This will create a valid obligation on the part of the County
retroactively authorizing all payments made by the Auditor-Controller
up to now, and authorizing payment of the balance.
