Agenda Analysis
Analysis
This resolution approves an amendment to Resolution No. RS2024-213. The amendment corrects an error in the description of a grant from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to the Metropolitan Board of Health. When the original resolution was approved, it was believed the document submitted was the second amendment to an existing contract originally approved by Resolution No. RS2023-1955. After the contract amendment was approved, it became clear that the Centers for Disease Control intended the documents to be a new award instead of an amendment to a prior grant contract.
The resolution under consideration would eliminate the grant amendment language included in Resolution No. RS2024-213 and instead describe the award as an entirely new grant. The grant is used for implementation of workforce strategies to build organization resilience, promote employee well-being, and enhance workforce performance while focusing on building healthier communities. The grant award is $843,396 with no cash match. The contract would begin on December 1, 2022 and conclude on November 30, 2024.
