#26-472-5
The Department is requesting that the amount due to the Contractor be paid. This can be accomplished by the
Board of Supervisors ratifying the actions of the County employees in obtaining provision of temporary
physician 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.
