FROM: Mark Finucane, Health Services Director Contra

SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve and authorize the Health Services Director to execute on
behalf of the County, Contract Amendment Agreement #23-177-4,
effective May 1, 1994, to amend Standard Contract #23-177-3 , with
Powell, Goldstein, Frazer & Murphy, to correct an error in the payment
provisions, to extend the term of the Contract through April 30, 1996,
and to increase the Contract payment limit by $25, 000, from $50, 000 to
a new total payment limit of $75, 000, for the Contractor' s provision
of additional services.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
This Contract is included in the Health Services Department's
Enterprise I Budget and is funded by third party revenues.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND:
On June 20, 1994, the Board of Supervisors approved Standard Contract
#23-177-3 with Powell, Goldstein, Frazer & Murphy, effective May 1,
1994 through April 30, 1995, for provision of temporary legal help
with regard to federal litigation and any appeal that may be filed
with the Federal Office of Civil Rights related to the rebuilding of
Merrithew Memorial Hospital.
It was the intent of the County and the Contractor that the Contractor
be reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses during the term of the
Contract. However, due to a mutual mistake of the parties, the
expense reimbursement language was not included in the Contract
Payment Provisions.
Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #23-177-4 will reform the
Contract to remedy the mutual mistake of the parties so that the
Contractor can be properly reimbursed for actual out-of-pocket
expenses, and will extend the term of the Contract through April 30,
1996.
