Authorize negotiation and execution of an amendment to an interlocal agreement with Travis County for the City’s provision of public health services, for a five-month term beginning on May 1, 2026, in an amount not to exceed $3,080,810. Funding: Travis County will reimburse the City for the public health services provided by the City through a cost recovery model.
This item lets the city negotiate and sign an amendment to its long-standing partnership with Travis County, under which Austin provides public health services to county residents. The amendment covers a five-month stretch starting May 1, 2026, with a not-to-exceed amount of $3,080,810. Travis County reimburses the city for those services through a cost recovery model, so the county foots the bill rather than Austin taxpayers.
