RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director, or designee, to execute a lease with Edward C. James, Jr., for a term of 2 years effective October 20, 2020, for 1,800 square feet of office space for the Sheriff-Coroner Department, Behavioral Health Court at 835 Castro Street, Martinez, at an initial annual rent of $28,200 for the first year with a 3% annual increase thereafter.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The lease will obligate the County to pay rent in excess of approximately $57,240 over the 2-year term of the lease. (100% General Fund)











BACKGROUND:

The Sheriff-Coroner Department, Behavioral Health Court has been operating at this location since 2008 and has the capacity to serve 25 male and female clients. The Behavioral Health Court (BHC) is a program for chronically mentally ill individuals with co-occurring disorders who have opted in to BHC rather than serve jail or prison time. The BHC provides clients with intensive clinical case management, mental health treatment, monitoring and supervision. Clients receive coaching in mental illness symptom management, medication management, health management, daily living skills, problem solving, interpersonal relationships and social skills, responsibility and accountability. The BHC assists with family reunification, independent living, development and promotion of individual strengths, skills and purpose in life. This new lease provides for the County’s continued operation of this program by the Sheriff-Coroner, Behavioral Health Court at this location.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Failure to approve the Lease for the continued operation of the Sheriff-Coroner Department, Behavioral Health Court at this location would result in having to relocate to another suitable location at increased rent, together with the associated expenses of moving and constructing new tenant improvements.
