Billing System. After remodeling is complete, Health Services will install, test, and make
operational these two computer systems.

C. In addition, an October 1999 remodeling completion date will not meet the September 1999
deadline established by the State Department of Health Services (DHS) for a Y2K compliant
CCHP MIS system.
D. The continuous operation of these two systems is vital to Health Services' ability to deliver health
care and treatment services to their patients, and is therefore necessary .for the life, health, welfare,
and safety of the citizens who rely on Health Services for critical health care services, medical
treatment, and emergency medical services.
E. Consequently, on April 27, 1999 (Agenda Item C.72), the Board 1) found that an emergency
exists, ) delegated authority to the General Services Director to proceed in the most expeditious
manner with the Computer Room Expansion, 595 Center Avenue, Suite 210, Martinez for health
Services, 3) directed the General Services Director to make reports to enable the Board to review
the emergency actions and to determine that there is a need to continue the action and 4) declared
that the project, as an emergency, is exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental
Quality Act.
F, The condition that the Board found to be an emergency on April 27 continues to exist. 'Therefore,
it is necessary to continue the emergency action previously taken by the Board so that the work can
be completed in the shortest time possible.
G. On April 27, 1999 the Board approved a consulting services agreement with :Marcy Li Wong
Architects for architectural and engineering services for the Computer Room Expansion. Can April
22, 1999 a First Amendment was issued to amend Appendix B, Paragraph A of the consulting
services agreement to include Classifications and rates specified in Marcy Li Wong Architect's
1999 Hourly Billing Rates and. Reimbursables Schedule. There was no increase in the payment
limit. On July 8, 1999 a Second Amendment was issued for additional engineering design services
due to increased protect scope and construction administration services. The revised agreement
payment limit is $97,900.00.
H. Contracts for the emergency work have been negotiated. A contract was issued to the Contractor,
RCSM and Associates, Inc., on June 17, 1999, with an effective date of May 10, 1999 and a
payment limit of$837,982.00. Can June 25, 1999, a formal notice to proceed was issued to confirm
