(No general fund impact) (Larsen)

Recommended Action

Reason for Recommended Action/Background

County staff have identified a need for additional nursing staff to support the distribution of the COVID-19 vaccines at County operated vaccine distribution clinics.

The aggregate total contracted amount with Communicare Health Centers exceeds the Procurement Manager's delegated authority to sign, however, staff seeks to move this contract forward to ensure smooth operations at County operated vaccine distribution clinics.
