Information

Agenda Item Text:

Approve a new contract for Professional Services Agreement 15-19-BOS-03 for Transportation Services for the Pima County Medical Examiner Contract to Sierra Vista Cremation and Burial Chapel in Sierra Vista effective November 18, 2014 through October 1, 2015.

Background:

On 6/6/12 the BOS approved contracts to three Funeral Homes in the county. A new funeral home has opened business in Sierra Vista and has agreed to transport bodies to the Pima County Medical Examiner's office in Tucson and back to Cochise County. The County does not currently have an agreement with any funeral home in Sierra Vista. Bodies are currently transported by the Espinosa Funeral Home in Bisbee and Richardson's Funeral Home in Benson. This agreement will provide faster service at virtually no additional costs. (Currently costs $319.00 per transport new contract provides payment of $320.00)

Department's Next Steps (if approved):

Execute contract. Contact Cochise County Sheriff's Office and Sierra Vista Police Department of the new agreement.

Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:

The County will continue to provide service in Sierra Vista from the two homes currently providing services.

To BOS Staff: Document Disposition/Follow-Up:

Contracts will be hand carried to Arlethe Rios
