Commission approves consent calendar of innovation projects and contracts ahead of June 30 deadline
Summary
The commission approved a consent calendar including multiple county innovation proposals and three contracts; staff emphasized this is the last meeting before the June 30 deadline for innovation proposals to be approved and operational under current BHSA rules.
At its May 28 meeting the commission approved a consent calendar that bundled seven county innovation proposals and three contract awards.
Staff explained the special timing: proposals that counties want the commission to approve and operationalize under the prior innovation component must be approved and active by June 30, 2026; after that date counties may pursue innovation under different BHSA buckets without commission approval.
Items called out by staff on the consent calendar included an $1,800,000 Pacific Islander innovation project (San Francisco County), a $448,730 drop-in teen center proposal (Del Norte County), a $1,800,000 Latinx and Indigenous healing-centered systems project (San Francisco), and a program-improvement/outpatient treatment proposal for Santa Clara County (amount noted in materials). The consent calendar also included renewal or new contracts for creative services ($135,000), on-site security ($139,656), and procurement consulting ($300,000).
Commissioners approved the consent calendar by voice/roll-call. A commissioner asked staff to follow up with additional detail on how San Francisco County defines "indigenous" for one proposal; staff agreed to provide that clarification.
