Agenda Text
The Board is requested to authorize the County Manager to increase the contract with Express Employment Services, Inc. in the amount of $26,000 for not to exceed an amount of $65,000 using current fiscal year 2023-24 operating budget.
The County previously entered into a contract with Express Employment Services, Inc., for temporary employment services due to a staff shortage in the County Attorney’s Office. While the contract was for the full fiscal year, the length of need was uncertain and so the contract was not funded for the full fiscal year. The services are still needed and will extend through the end of the fiscal year. The additional funds allocation will result in a total contract amount in excess of the Interim County Attorney’s authority contracting authority, and so the contract is submitted for approval.
