FROM: Linda Dippel, Director = _ 4
County
DATE: April 11, 2006
SUBJECT: Macias Gini& Company LLP—Contract Amendment
•
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATIONS&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATIONS:
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Child Support Services Director, or designee, to execute a contract
amendment with Macias Gini& Company, LLP to increase the payment limit by$22,000 to a new payment
limit of$162,000 to provide additional trust fund reconciliation services.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
None. The cost of this contract is budgeted within the State's conversion budget allocation to Child Support
Services. There will be no impact on the General Fund.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND
The reconciliation of the Child Support Trust Fund as mandated by the State relative to conversion to the
Statewide Distribution Unit is broader in scope than originally anticipated. The original allocation is
insufficient to complete the reconciliation properly within the given time frames. This Order will increase the
allocation to cover anticipated expenses through the end of the contract period.
CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION
DCSS does not have the staff resources to reconcile the trust fund in the required time frame. If the trust fund
is not reconciled, we will be unable to obtain auditor-controller approval as required by the state prior to
forwarding the trust fund balance to the state. This could result in reduced funding and penalties for the
department.
