recommendation
Approve Second Amendment to BOS Agreement 21-145 with Armorous increasing the total Agreement amount by $30,000 for a new Agreement total of $630,000 to provide ongoing security guard services for inmates temporarily housed in facilities other than the Mendocino County Jail, such as hospitals, through June 30, 2025; and authorize Chair to sign same.

PREVIOUS BOARD/BOARD COMMITTEE ACTIONS:
On June 15, 2021, the Board approved a four-year Agreement for security guard services with Armorous in the amount of $400,000. On March 28, 2023, the Board approved an Amendment increasing the Agreement amount by $200,000, for a new Agreement total of $600,000.
SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
The Sheriff's Office is requesting an amendment to BOS Agreement 21-145 with Armorous to increase available funds by $30,000 through June 30, 2025, bringing the Agreement total to $630,000. In recent months there has been a rise in inmate illnesses requiring hospitalization, thus the need for ongoing security guard services for these visits. As a result, the Agreement is quickly hitting its ceiling and additional funds are required in order to pay for the services through the term of the Agreement.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION/MOTION:
Return to staff for alternate handling.
