The Sub grant Agreement was approved by the Board at the August 18, 2004 BOCC meeting. ITEM BACKGROUND: As a result of funds becoming available through the federal government, the Department of Health (DOH), Division of Emergency Medical Operations (EMO) was authorized to develop a Sub grant Agreement to disperse funds to Monroe County to acquire goods, equipment, and supplies for use in training and participating as a State of Florida Regional Response agency for disasters, including terrorism. A Sub grant Agreement for Equipment for Florida Strategy between DOH, Division of EMO and Monroe County (for Fire Rescue) was approved by the BOCC at the August 18, 2004 meeting and thereby executed by the appropriate officials of Monroe County. On January 31,2005 it was learned that the Sub grant Agreement would not be executed by the DOH as the project had been changed substantially by an Equipment Subcommittee of the State, and this made the current Agreement null and void. In view of the foregoing, the DOH, Division ofEMO has requested that the Sub grant Agreement be rescinded. A new agreement with the corrected equipment specifications will follow within the next few months. PREVIOUS RELEVANT BOCC ACTION: On August 18,2004 the Board approved and authorized execution of a Sub grant Agreement for Equipment for Florida Strategy with Florida Dep.artment of Health, Division of Emergency Medical Operations and Monroe County Board of County Commissioners for its Fire Rescue Department.
