Board authorizes Southside Behavioral Health to sign Commonwealth performance agreement
Summary
Supervisors authorized Southside Behavioral Health to enter a statewide performance agreement required by the Code of Virginia for community services boards, staff said; the item was described as a required administrative authorization for the locality's CSB participation.
The board authorized Southside Behavioral Health to enter into a performance agreement with the Commonwealth of Virginia, staff said, a routine requirement for localities that formed community services boards (CSBs). Staff told the board the Code of Virginia requires each locality that is part of a CSB to authorize participation in the statewide performance contract; the item is administrative and applies across Virginia. A county staff member described the contract as exhaustive and said every locality must provide the authorization even though the board may not understand all details. A motion to authorize Southside Behavioral Health to execute the performance agreement was moved and approved by voice vote. Staff noted the action is procedural: it permits the regional behavioral-health authority to enter into the statutory performance agreement with the Commonwealth.
