This agenda item seeks to amend the State Fiscal Year (SFY) 2016 contract between the Kansas Department on Aging and Disability Services (KDADS) and the Sedgwick County Developmental Disability Organization (SCDDO) to extend the contract until June 30, 2018. The amendment does not include any significant changes from the current agreement, it simply extends the terms for another year.

If approved, this amendment will be effective from July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2018.

Budget Authority Adjustment: No additional budget authority is being requested. Sufficient budget authority is available in the 2017 adopted budget and the 2018 requested budget.
Alternatives: The amendment could be rejected in its current form with instruction to the division to pursue other options for local system management. In this case, the State would withhold payment to the CDDO, impacting the ability to pay service providers and support CDDO operations.
