FISCAL IMPACT/COST BENEFIT ANALYSIS:
This is sales tax revenue raised by the County from the 1/10 of 1% Sales and Use Tax Fund dedicated to
prevention and treatment of mental illness and substance abuse disorder. Funds are allocated by the
BoCC with advice from the Mental Health, Substance Abuse Advisory Committee. Agreements will include
language that if the sales tax revenue decreases during the terms of the contract, vendors will be
contacted and their contracts may be renegotiated.
These allocations result from an RFP process and, after an in-depth review process, are recommended by
the Mental Health, Substance Abuse Advisory Committee.
