A-3. SETTLEMENT OF REDUCED PAYMENT FROM MAXIMUS FOR CO-LOCATION IN MARICOPA WORKFORCE CONNECTIONS ONE STOP CAREER CENTER Consideration and vote regarding proposed settlement amount from Maximus for co-location in the Maricopa County – Maricopa Workforce Connections (MWC) West Valley One Stop Career Center. According to the terms of the contract, Maximus agreed to pay a total of $138,904.41 for co-locating in two career centers, East Valley and West Valley. During the final quarter of the agreement Maximus withdrew staff from the West Valley location, due to their budget cuts. Maximus did not provide formal notification of this withdrawal. Maximus asserts that, because of this staff withdrawal, the payment for the final quarter should be $19,773, although the total amount due for that period is $27,491. Maximus has submitted a check in the amount of $19,773 as a proposed settlement for amounts due. This will constitute a loss of $7,716.00 in revenue. Authorize the Chairman of the Board to take any action necessary to accept the check for the reduced amount provided by Maximus. The original contract with Maximus (C-22-09-066-1) was approved by the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors on June 18, 2008, for the term of July 1, 2008 to June 30, 2010 to co-locate in two career centers.
