WHEREAS, the purpose of this amendment is to extend the contract duration from October 31, 2022, through June 30, 2023; and

WHEREAS, this amendment also awards $88,048.00 for permanent supportive housing case management for a new contract total of $132.080.77; and

WHEREAS, it appears to be in the best public interest to authorize execution of said contract.

NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that Lewis County rescinds Resolution 22-274 for contract R01-0173-22; and

NOW THEREFORE BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED the BOCC approves contract R01-0173-22 Amendment A between Lewis County and Reliable Enterprises to extend the contract duration from October 31, 2022, through June 30, 2023, and award $88,048.00 for permanent supportive housing case management to persons residing on Reliable Enterprises properties within Lewis County for a new contract total of $132.080.77, and the BOCC authorizes the Director of Public Health and Social Services to sign the same.
