RECOMMENDATION(S):

A. Approve and Authorize the Health Services Director or his designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, Grant Award #29-396-15 with the California Department of Public Health, to approve the certification page that certifies the County's compliance with certain State requirements for the Tobacco Prevention Project and accept funds payable to County in amount not to exceed $450,000 for the period from July 1, 2014 through June 30, 2017, and

B. Approve the County's Comprehensive Tobacco Control Plan (CTCP) and Budget for FY 2014-2017 for submission to the California Department of Public Health.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The total amount of allocated funds for fiscal year 2014-2017 shall not exceed a total of $450,000 from the California Department of Public Health for the Tobacco Prevention Project, Local Lead Agency. No County match required.

BACKGROUND:

The State has designated Contra Costa County as "the Local Lead Agency", and Public Health Division's Prevention Program is coordinating countywide tobacco control activities, including the facilitation and staffing of a Tobacco Control Coalition.

The goal of this Comprehensive Tobacco Control Plan (CTCP), County #29-396-15, is to reduce secondhand smoke, to counter Pro-Tobacco influences and to reduce access to tobacco products in Contra Costa County. The project also works with community organizations to adopt tobacco prevention as part of their organizational mission. The local Tobacco Prevention Coalition established the Project priorities.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, the County will not receive funds to continue reducing secondhand smoke, countering Pro-Tobacco influences or reducing access to tobacco products in Contra Costa County.
