II . FINANCIAL IMPACT : (Concluded )
The fiscal year payment limits set forth above do not
include any cost-of-living increases for Fiscal Year 1989-90
or Fiscal Year 1990-91 . In the event that the Board of
Supervisors authorizes a cost-of-living adjustment expressly
for these contracts before December 31 , the fiscal year
payment limits and total contract payment limit for each
contract may be modified by a written Administrative
Amendment executed by each contractor and the County
Administrator , or his designee , to reflect any such cost-of-
living increase , except that this provision shall not be
construed to require agreement to any such increase.
Furthermore , the contract documents include a provision
which terminates each contract without notice for the
1990-91 fiscal year if the federal funding for each contract
ceases and which makes each contract valid and enforceable
only if sufficient funds are made available by the State
Budget Act for Fiscal Year 1990-91 for the purposes of each
contract program.
III . REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND :
These contractors have been operating these same contract
programs for the County continuously for many years . These
mental health program services continue to be a vital and
important part of the County ' s continuum of care for
children and adolescents with problems of emotional and men-
tal illness , including family assessment services for a
child sexual abuse treatment program (Child and Family
Therapy Center in Martinez ) and day treatment services for
high risk, developmentally delayed or emotionally disturbed
children (We Care Center in Concord and Lynn Day Treatment
Center in Pittsburg. )
These three contracts were originally funded by the Board of
Supervisors with Federal revenue sharing grant funds and
were assigned to the Health Services Department for admi-
nistrative responsibility.
These contractors have been providing these mental health
program services under an automatic extension of the
FY 1988-89 contracts . The recommended Novation Contracts
set forth above replace the six-month automatic extension
under the prior contracts .
