Summary of Request:
The County of Mendocino designated the County of Sonoma, Coastal Valleys EMS Agency as its Local Emergency Medical Services Agency (LEMSA) to oversee regional EMS responsibilities pursuant to California Health and Safety Code Section 1797.200, a regional partnership that has been in place for approximately 15 years. This amendment updates the terms and budget under Section 4 and Exhibit A.
Total Obligation Reduction: Lowers the contract from $1,346,724 to $1,236,042.
FY 26-27 Adjustments: Modifies the final financial fiscal year parameters by waiving the standard 8% automatic increase cap. The final year cap is $373,183, which integrates the local Mendocino County approved base hospital fee of $48,308.15.
Reduction of Staff Time: The total regional FTE allocation dedicated to Mendocino drops from 2.5 to 1.5, which eliminates the Disaster Preparedness FTE and reduces the local Mendocino EMS Coordinator from 0.8 FTE to 0.2 FTE.
Operational Mandates: Mendocino County Public Health EMS staff will take over all local Medical Health Operational Area Coordinator (MHOAC) operational mandates, disaster preparedness coordination, and local administrative oversight.
Scope of Work: Extracts legal services from the regional shared cost pool, stipulating the Mendocino County Counsel provides direct local legal support with zero responsibility for Sonoma County legal fees. In-kind support for staff dedicated workspace is refined.
