Background:

On September 14, 2021, the BCC authorized the County Manager to execute the Consulting and Management Agreement with Ernst & Young, LLP. The agreement provided Seminole County with an application portal to help manage American Rescue Plan Act-funded programs, including ERA2, individual assistance, and small business assistance through November 30, 2022 at a fixed fee not to exceed $2,146,643.

 

The attached amendment will extend the term of the agreement to July 31, 2023 at a fixed fee cost of $9,000 to allow access for County Staff to the platform to perform audits and resolve potential issues. The amendment will allow for an optional three-month extension to October 31, 2023, for a fixed fee cost of $4,500.

This amendment will be paid through allowable administrative fees and interest earned within the grant.
