Agenda Text
The Board is requested to approve Budget Ordinance Amendment No. 18BCC000037 for increased funding in the amount of $169,730 for the Board of Health Smoking Rule Signage Installation costs with the funding source being the recognition of a portion of Medicaid Cost Settlement Funds received in current fiscal year 2018 above what was originally budgeted and authorize the County Manager to execute a contract with DesignElement for the Smoking Rule Signage Installation.
The Board of Health Smoking Rule which includes e-cigarettes covers many outdoor public spaces, such as parks, trails, sidewalks and bus stops. Since most of these sites have inadequate signage, new installation or replacement signage (replacing damaged or removed signs) is needed. The cost is not to exceed $169,730 to pay for the installation of no-smoking signs at sites covered by the Rule.
The Board of Health has approved this amendment.
