Title: To authorize and direct the Board of Health to modify and increase an existing contract for Behavioral Health services with AIDS Resource Center Ohio Medical Center; to modify all Behavioral Health contracts and agreements by assigning all past, present, and future contracts and purchase orders with AIDS Resource Center Ohio to AIDS Resource Center Ohio Medical Center; to authorize the expenditure of $112,667.00 from the Health Department Grants Fund; and to declare an emergency. ($112,667.00)
Explanation
Ordinance number 0569-2014, approved by City Council on March 24, 2014, authorized the Board of Health to enter into a contract with AIDS Resource Center Ohio in the amount of $221,793.00 for Behavioral Health Services for eligible persons living with HIV or AIDS in central Ohio (Franklin, Licking, Delaware, Morrow, Union, Madison, Pickaway and Fairfield counties) for the contract period of March 1, 2014 through February 28, 2015.

These services were advertised through vendor services (SA005218) in December, 2013 according to bidding requirements of the City Code.

This modification will increase the amount of the contract and assign past, present, and future behavioral health contracts and purchase orders with AIDS Resource Center Ohio to AIDS Resource Center Ohio Medical Center; other contract terms will remain the same. At the time of contract award, the full amount of the grant award was not known so a partial award was given to AIDS Resource Center Ohio. The modification amount was determined based on negotiations with the vendor. This ordinance will provide anticipated funding for the remainder of the contract period and it would be manifestly impractical to bid this contract for the remainder of the grant period ending February 28, 2015.
