the DHCS Bond BHCIP Round 1: Launch Ready grant, in the award
amount of $24,000,000 for a term of execution through June 30, 2030,
and to sign amendments which do not increase Net County Cost,
contingent upon approval by County Counsel and Risk Management;
4) Authorize the Purchasing Agent, based on RFQ 23-918-072, to sign
Agreement for Services 9701 with Lionakis, in the amount of $2,333,904,
for a five-year term, which shall become effective upon final execution of
the official Notice to Proceed with the Work, to provide architectural and
engineering services for the tenant improvement project for County’s
Psychiatric Health Facility (PHF) at 299 Fair Lane (upper level) and the
HHSA offices at 295 Fair Lane (lower level) in Placerville, including
amendments thereto that do not increase the maximum obligation or term
of the Agreement; and
5) Authorize the HHSA Director, once the Program Funding Agreement is
fully executed, to assign all of the Bond BHCIP Program Round 1 funding
