OST'9 COUK�CS'
SUBJECT: Contract for Fiscal Services — Cash Flow, Tax Revenue Anticipation Notes
(TRAN), Budget, Cost Plan
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATIONS:
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the County Auditor-Controller, or designee, to amend the
contract with Justin P. Garvey to provide specialized fiscal services by increasing the payment
limit from $25,000 to $125,000, extending the term from December 31, 2006 to December 31,
2007, and expanding the scope to include mandated budget functions and Cost Plan
preparation.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The cost for the amendment will be funded by anticipated salary savings within the current FY
2006-2007 budget of the Auditor-Controller.
BACKGROUND:
The Office of the Auditor-Controller recently underwent a major reorganization due to several
personnel changes. One element of that reorganization was the formation of the "Special
Accounting/Budget" division. The division consists of a newly appointed Chief Accountant and
two Accountant III positions. Within the past few weeks, both Accountant III positions became
unexpectedly vacant.
Initially the Contractor was hired to perform the more complex analytical duties in the area of
Cash Flow, TRAN, and Budget, while the newly appointed manager and accounting staff
acquired the necessary knowledge and skills to perform their responsibilities. Due to the
unplanned departure of staff, the Contractor's services need to expand to perform the
ongoing, mandated functions of the division and assist in completin the County's annual Cost
Plan.
