FROM; By : Elizabeth A. Spooner , Contracts Administrator Contra
Costa
DATE: October 6, 1988 County
SUBJECT; Retroactive Payment to Antonio G. Britto (dba
Concord Transportation Services - Sal ' s Taxi of Martinez)
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATIONS) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I . RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Ratify purchase of services from Antonio G. Britto (dba Concord
Transportation Services - Sal ' s Taxi of Martinez) in excess of
the payment limit of Contract #26-158 (and Contract Amendment
Agreements #26-158-1 and #26-158-2) for the month of June 1988 ,
and authorize the County Auditor-Controller to pay the
outstanding balance , not to $ 168.00 for said services .
II . FINANCIAL IMPACT :
The amount of $168 .00 has been included in the 1988-89 Fiscal
Year expenditure projection for the Hospital Enterprise Fund.
III . REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND:
On July 29 , 1987 , the County Administrator ' s Office approved and
the Purchasing Agent executed Contract #26-158 with Anthony G.
Britto (dba Concord Transportation Services - Sal ' s Taxi of
Martinez) for taxicab transportation services for Merrithew
Memorial Hospital patients . Subsequently, the Board approved
Contract Amendment Agreements #26-158-1 and #26-158-2 which
extended the term of the contract from December 31 , 1987 to
June 30 , 1988 , with corresponding increases in the contract
payment limit . On July 26 , 1988 , the Board approved a new
Contract #26-158-3 with this Contractor for fiscal year
1988-89 .
During the term of the prior Contract , patient transportation
services were requested as needed by County staff and provided
by the Contractor in good faith. However , even though the total
contract payment limit was increased from $25 ,000 to $45 ,000 ,
the final amount encumbered under the contract still did not
cover the costs incurred. Because of administrative oversight
by both the County and Anthony G. Britto (dba Concord
Transportation Services - Sal ' s Taxi of Martinez) use of the
taxicab service exceeded the final contract payment limit
by $168.00 .

Board Order Page 2
The Health Services Department is requesting that the amount due
Antonio G. Britto (dba Concord Transportation Services - Sal' s
Taxi of Martinez) be paid . This can be accomplished by the
Board of Supervisors ratifying the actions of County employees
in obtaining provision of taxicab 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.
Funding for this payment was considered by Health Services and
is included in the current budget .
