RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the County Administrator, or designee, to execute a contract with Rubicon Programs, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $400,000 to operate the West County Reentry Resource Center for the AB 109 Public Safety Realignment Program, for the period July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The contract has a cost of $400,000 for FY 2015/16 and is 100% funded with AB 109 Public Safety Realignment revenues.

BACKGROUND:

On March 25, 2014, the Board of Supervisors adopted the Plans developed for the establishment and operation of a West County Reentry Resource Center and an East & Central County Networked System of Services. (See http://www.cccounty.us/2366/Services-Programs for copies the Plans and RFQs.) To begin to implement these Plans, three Requests for Qualifications (RFQs) were issued by the County Administrator's Office on April 1, 2014 to identify contract providers for the services contemplated in the Plans.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

The County Administrator's Office convened three Evaluation Panels to review and rate the responses and to interview responders. The Evaluation Panel recommended a contract be awarded to Rubicon Programs, Inc., in the amount of $400,000 to operate the West County Reentry Resource Center to provide services to the reentry population in West County for the AB 109 Public Safety Realignment Program.

At its May 2, 2014 meeting, the CCP accepted the presentation of the results of the Evaluation Panels. At its May 6, 2014 meeting, the Public Protection Committee concurred with these recommendations. At its May 13, 2014 meeting, the Board of Supervisors approved the contract with Rubicon Programs, Inc., for $400,000 for the period July 1, 2014 through June 30, 2015.

For fiscal year 2015/16, the CCP-Executive Committee approved the FY 2015/16 AB109 Public Safety Realignment budget at its January 9, 2015 regular meeting and submitted it to the Public Protection Committee for review and approval. On February 9, 2015, the Public Protection Committee accepted the CCP-Executive Committee's recommendations.

Today's action approves the contract with Rubicon Programs, Inc. to operate the West County Reentry Resource Center to provide services to the reentry population in West County for the AB 109 Public Safety Realignment Program, for the period July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Negative action would result in the expiration of the current contract on June 30, 2015 and would discontinue the operation of the West County Reentry Resource Center.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

No impact.
