for low competitive bidding upon the making of certain findings by the local contract review board of

Section 1. Based upon the information stated in this Resolution and the Draft findings
submitted by the Mental Health Department, dated December 15, 2004, which is adopted and
incorporated herein, the Board hereby finds that granting an exemption to the low competitive bidding
requirements of ORS 279.029 will not encourage favoritism in the awarding of public contracts, will
not substantially diminish competition for the contracts, will result in substantial cost savings to the
County, and will meet other policy objectives.
Section 2. Based upon the above findings, a specific exemption to the low competitive bidding
requirements of ORS Chapter 279 is hereby granted to obtain a provider of Treatment Foster Care
Services, the final terms and conditions of which are subject to Board approval.
Section 3. This Resolution shall become effective immediately upon its adoption.
