SUBJECT: Retroactive Payment to Lincoln Child Center, Inc. u
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION(S):
Ratify purchase of services from Lincoln Child Center, Inc., a non-profit corporation, and authorize the
County Auditor-Controller to pay the 525,191. outstanding balance for the provision of day treatment
services for Seriously Emotionally Disturbed (SED) youth for the period from April 1, 2007 through June
30, 2007.
FISCAL. IMPACT:
This Contract is funded 100% by Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA/SB 90).
BACKGROUND/REASON(S) FOR REC0f%,1MENDATI0N(S):
On May 1, 2007, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #24-893-12 with Lincoln Child Center, I.nc.,
for the period from April 1, 2007 through June 30, 2007 (with a six-month automatic extension through
December 31, 2007), to provide intensive day treatment, medication support, case management, outreach,
and crisis management for mentally or emotionally disturbed children, including Special Education Pupils
(SEP), for Individualized Education Plan (IEP).
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 the Contractor's services exceeded the
authorized limits.
Services were requested and provided beyond the payment limit and by the end of June 30, 2007, charges
of$53,492 had been incurred, of which $28,301 has been paid, and $25,191 remains outstanding.
The Department is requesting that the Contractor be paid $25,191 as payment in full. This can be
accomplished by the Board of Supervisors ratifying the actions of the County employees in obtaining
provision of 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.
