ARTICLE 31. Void Contract RECEIVING AGENCY may hold a contract void upon its determination that the contract award was obtained fraudulently or was otherwise illegal or invalid from its inception. ARTICLE 32. Local Health Department Personnel All local health department personnel funded by Attachment(s) to this contract are employees of PERFORMING AGENCY which will be responsible for their direction and control and liable for any of their acts or omissions. PERFORMING AGENCY will have in place legally sufficient due process hearing procedures for all of its employees filling state budgeted positions. PERFORMING AGENCY will have full authority to employ, promote, suspend, demote, discharge, and transfer within its organization any and all state budgeted personnel funded by Attachment( s) to this contract provided, however, that any demotion, suspension, or discharge of such state budgeted employees will be in accordance with the due process hearing procedures as set out above. The only distinction between state budgeted and local paid employees is that employees on state budgeted positions receive state benefits and are subject to certain duties, obligations, and restrictions as state employees as contained in state law. One such restriction, as contained in the State Appropriations Act, is that no employee paid on a state budgeted position may receive a salary supplement from any source unless specifically authorized in the Appropriations Act or other state law. This prohibition includes the payment to such employee of a so-called "flat rate" car allowance or travel allowance. Any travel or per diem allowance to these employees must be on a reimbursement basis, supported by appropriate records, and may not exceed the reimbursement for mileage and/or per diem allowed under the Appropriations Act and current state travel regulations. This restriction will apply whether travel funds are provided in Attachment(s) under this contract or from any other source. PERFORMING AGENCY will utilize RECEIVING AGENCY's policies and procedures for hiring and promoting individuals into state budgeted positions funded by this contract. Qualifications of any individuals filling these positions will be subject to approval of RECEIVING AGENCY's Bureau of Human Resources. The purpose of the approval is to ensure that individuals occupying these positions meet minimum educational and experience requirements. PERFORMING AGENCY will maintain required records and submit documents necessary to process personnel, payroll, leave and time records, and travel costs on state budgeted positions. RECEIVING AGENCY will furnish documentation regarding salary compensation or travel reimbursement for employees on state budgeted positions. An independent audit is not required as a condition of this contract if the Attachment provides assistance through assignment of state budgeted positions and no funds are budgeted for local costs. PERFORMING AGENCY may be reimbursed for local personnel costs or other categories of expense used to fulfill the scope of work of applicable Attachment( s) in lieu of being furnished state payroll warrants after a state budgeted position becomes vacant. Reimbursement will not exceed the balance òf funds on the state budgeted position after all benefits, obligations, and/or other entitlements are met. PERFORMING AGENCY's Director, or other person(s) authorized elsewhere in this contract, may submit a request for conversion. RECEIVING AGENCY will transmit formal approval and a revised budget to PERFORMING AGENCY to complete the conversion if the request is granted. (LGS) 1999 GENERAL PROVISIONS Page 21 4/98
