Report
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the Board of Supervisors:
Approve the correct full term of October 10, 2011 to June 30, 2017 for the Agreement (A-12242) with Nixon Peabody LLP for Legal Services at NMC
SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:
On June 3, 2014 Natividad Medical Center brought forth a Board Report to the Monterey County Board of Supervisors requesting authorization for the Purchasing Manager at Natividad Medical Center to execute Amendment No. 3 to the Agreement with Nixon Peabody LLP to extend the Agreement term so that Natividad Medical Center could continue to receive Legal Services as needed.
Although within the body of Amendment No. 3 it clearly stated that the new extended term was through June 30, 2017, a typo was entered within the Board Report whereby the requested end date of the term was stated incorrectly as June 30, 2015. This has resulted in a conflict as the Amendment No. 3 now states a different end date than the Board Order does. This request is to rectify that error so that there is consistency between what the Board has approved and what the Amendment No. 3 states.
The intended term for this Agreement as per Amendment No. 3 is through June 30, 2017.
OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT:
County Counsel has reviewed and approved this request. Amendment No. 3 was approved by County Counsel as to legal form and risk provisions, and also approved by the Auditor-Controller as to fiscal provisions. The Amendment No. 3 was also reviewed and approved by Natividad Medical Center's Board of Trustees
FINANCING:
There is no financial impact resulting from this request as the total cost for the Agreement was already approved by the Board of Supervisors when they originally approved Amendment No. 3 on June 3, 2014.
