Board of Supervisors Tues Mtg 09-15-26

The County of Lake Board of Supervisors held a meeting on September 15, 2026, which included several procurement-related discussions and contract approvals. Key procurement actions included the approval of a change order to the agreement with Workday to extend the ERP HCM go-live date to October 12, 2026, with an increased implementation cost of $175,000. The board also approved budget amendments increasing revenues and appropriations for mental health and substance use disorder services by approximately $4.86 million each, enabling contract payments to providers. Additionally, the board considered and approved a new agreement with Traditions Behavioral Health for specialty mental health services, following a competitive solicitation that received 14 proposals. The contract terms include payment rates ranging from 35% to 50% of the applicable DHCS billable rate, representing a cost reduction from the previous provider's rates. Other agenda items involved grant applications for solid waste disposal and site abatement, and appointments to the California State Association of Counties Board. Several items related to land use and cannabis permits were discussed, with some deferred for further review. The meeting also featured proclamations and public input on community issues but focused procurement decisions on software implementation, behavioral health services contracts, and budget adjustments.
