RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Auditor-Controller, or designee, to pay Food Bank of Contra Costa and Solano in an amount not to exceed $6,243 for County residents diagnosed with HIV and their families for services rendered to Contra Costa County residents during the period January 1, 2018 through February 28, 2018.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This contract is funded 100% by funds from the Ryan White HIV Treatment Extension Act.

BACKGROUND:

On July 18, 2017, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #22-939-29 with Food Bank of Contra Costa and Solano County who provides coordination of food services for County residents diagnosed with HIV and their families. On November 28, 2017, the HIV/AIDS and STD Program requested a reallocation of $6,243 from Medical Transportation Services to Food and Medical Nutrition Therapy services at the Oakland TGA Planning Council.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

The contractor is entitled to payment for the reasonable value of its services under the equitable relief theory of quantum meruit. That theory provides that where a contractor has been asked to provide services without a valid contract, and the contractor does so to the benefit of the County, the contractor is entitled to recover the reasonable value of those services. The contractor has provided services at the request of the County after the original contract payment limit had been reached. The department cannot pay contractor for services rendered that exceed the contract limits. As such, the department recommends that the Board authorize the Auditor-Controller to issue a one-time payment not to exceed $6,243 to Food Bank of Contra Costa and Solano County.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If the board order is not approved, the contractor will not be paid for services requested by County staff and provided by the contractor.
