RECITALS
A. On March 11, 2021, the President of the United States signed the American Rescue Plan
Act of 2021 (“ARPA”) into law. Section 9901 of ARPA amended Title VI of the Social Security Act to

been allocated $244,270,949 in Local Fiscal Recovery Fund (“LFRF”) dollars under ARPA.
B. The United States Department of Treasury has issued a final rule, and other guidance

C. Oakland County has determined that this grant program is a qualified use of LFRF funds
pursuant to the final rule and other applicable Department of Treasury guidance. Oakland County Board
of Commissioners appropriated up to $700,000 in LFRF funds for Honor Community Health.

j. DEFINED USE OF FUNDS: All grant funds must be expended in accordance with the
guidelines for ARPA funds. Grantee has outlined the following intended uses of grant
funds:
In collaboration and partnership, the County, Grantee, and Oakland Community Health
Network (OCHN) offer physical and behavioral health care services (“Services”) at an
Integrated Urgent Care Facility, i.e., walk-in clinic, at the Facility (“Facility”). The Facility
is defined as the building and parking area at which Grantee provides the Services. The
Facility is located at 48980 Woodward Avenue, Pontiac, Michigan 48342. Any change to
the location of the Facility shall be codified in an amendment to this Agreement.
The Facility provides immediate integrated care for residents of Oakland County,
regardless of insurance, who are impacted by immediate physical and/or mental health
concerns. The Facility will diagnose and provide treatment for individuals requiring
immediate medical and/or mental health attention for non-life-threatening conditions.
Individuals visiting the Facility for behavioral health needs will be assessed to determine
their appropriate level of care. Individuals who use the Facility will be treated onsite or
via telehealth services. Individuals may be referred to higher levels of care, if needed.
The Facility will provide access to services more appropriate than a hospital emergency
department for addressing non-emergent medical and behavioral health needs when an
individual’s service provider is not available. Grantee shall use the grant funds to
continue to operate the Facility to improve access to primary care and behavioral health
services, regardless of ability to pay, and offer-in person and telehealth visits to limit
barriers to residents seeking primary care and behavioral health services.
2.Grantee Affirmations:
a. Grantee affirms that any and all representations made to Grantor in connection with this
grant were accurate, truthful and complete and remain so. Grantee acknowledges that
all representations and information provided have been relied on by the Grantor to
provide funding under this Agreement. Grantee shall promptly notify Grantor, in writing,
of the occurrence of any event or any material change in circumstances which would
make any Grantee representation or information untrue or incorrect or otherwise impair
Grantee’s ability to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement.
b. Grantee may not use grant funds for expenses for which the Grantee has received any
other federal funds or emergency COVID-19 supplemental funding, whether it be state,
federal, or private in nature, for the same expense. No portion of grant funds may be
used for the purpose of obtaining additional Federal funds under any other law of the
United States, except if authorized by law. Grantee shall promptly notify Grantor if it
receives insurance proceeds or other disaster assistance (public or private) that
duplicates the funding received under this Agreement. Grant funds may not be used to
cover expenses that were reimbursed by insurance.
c. Grantee shall not carry out any activities under this Agreement that results in a prohibited
duplication of benefits as defined by Section 312 of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief
and Emergency Assistance Act (42 U.S.C. 5155) and in accordance with Section 1210
of the Disaster Recovery Reform Act of 2018 (division D of Public Law 115–254; 132
Stat. 3442), which amended Section 312 of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and
Emergency Assistance Act (42 U.S.C. 5155). If the Grantee receives duplicate benefits
Page 4 of 6
OAKLAND COUNTY EXECUTIVE, DAVID COULTER
from another source for projects related to this disaster, the Grantee must refund the
benefits provided by the Grantor to the Grantor. Duplication of benefits occurs when
Federal financial assistance is provided to a person or entity through a program to
address losses resulting from a Federally-declared emergency or disaster, and the
person or entity has received (or would receive, by acting reasonably to obtain available
assistance) financial assistance for the same costs from any other source (including
insurance), and the total amount received exceeds the total need for those costs.
d. Grantee shall use all grant funds it receives under this Agreement by December 31,
2026. Any grant funds not used by that date must be returned to Grantor.
e. Grantee will provide Grantor with reports determined by the Director of Health and
Human Services and CEO of Honor Community Health.
3.Repayment/Remedies. Grantee is subject to repayment to the Grantor of an amount equal to
the grant funds received by Grantee in the event Grantee has made material misrepresentations
to the Grantor, voluntary bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings are commenced against the
Grantee and not set aside within sixty (60) days, or the Grantee fails to otherwise comply with
the requirements of this Agreement. In the event Grantor later determines the information
Grantee provided in conjunction with this grant, or that Grantee was ineligible for this grant, or
that Grantee’s use of the grant funds following receipt was contrary to this Agreement, Grantee
agrees to repay the grant funds to Grantor in full. Grantor further retains all rights and remedies
allowed in law or equity, including seeking payment of its reasonable costs and expenses
incurred enforcing its rights and remedies.
4.Grantee Indemnification. Grantee shall indemnify, defend and hold Grantor and its elected and
appointed officials harmless from all claims incurred or asserted against Grantor and its elected
and appointed officials, by any person or entity, which are alleged to have been caused directly
or indirectly form the acts or omissions of Grantee or Grantee’s employees. Grantee further
agrees to indemnify and hold Grantor harmless for the payment of any tax or withholding
payments, including any penalty assessed it may owe under this Agreement as described in
Section 6.
5.No Indemnification from Grantor. Grantee shall have no rights against Grantor for
indemnification, contribution, subrogation, or any other right against Grantee unless expressly
provided herein.
6.Tax Liability. Grantor and Grantee agree that to the extent that any part of the aforementioned
funds are deemed to be taxable, that Grantee agrees to be fully responsible for the payment of
any taxes, including withholding payments, social security, or other funds which are required to
be withheld. Grantee agrees to provide Grantor with all information and cooperation necessary
to execute a completed 1099-G form which Grantor will file with the United States Internal
Revenue Service. Grantee acknowledges that Grantee will consult with a tax professional
regarding the tax implications, if any, of the grant funds, and/or hereby waives the option to do
so.
7.Conflict of Interest. Pursuant to Public Act 317 and 318 of 1968, as amended (MCL 15.301, et
seq. and MCL 15.321, et seq.), to avoid any real or perceived conflict of interest, Grantee shall
disclose to Grantor the identity of all Grantee employees and all relatives of Grantee employees
who: a) are employed by the Grantor or are elected or appointed officials of the Grantor, on the
date the Grant is executed; and b) becomes employed or appointed by the Grantor or becomes
an elected official of Grantor during the term of the Grant.

8.Access to Records and Audit. Grantee shall maintain all records pertinent to the Agreement
and any amendments, including backup copies, for a period of five (5) years. The records shall
be kept in accordance with generally accepted accounting practices, and the Grantee shall
utilize adequate internal controls and maintain necessary documentation for all costs incurred,
including documentation and an inventory of all equipment purchased with grant funds. These
internal controls should be in compliance with guidance in “Standards for Internal Control in the
Federal Government” issued by the Comptroller General of the United States or the “Internal

any of their authorized representatives, at any time during normal business hours, as often as
deemed necessary, to audit, examine, and make excerpts or transcripts of all relevant data. Any
deficiencies noted in audit reports must be fully cleared by Grantee within 30 days after receipt
by the Grantee. Failure of Grantee to comply with the audit requirements will constitute a
violation of this Agreement.
Grantee must establish and maintain effective internal control over the Federal award that
provides reasonable assurance that they are managing the award in compliance with Federal
statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the award.
Grantee shall provide a final report that is due to Grantor upon the completion of the February

b. Grantee must comply with 31 U.S.C. Chapter 38, Administrative Remedies for False
Claims and Statements. Grantee will not pass-through grant funds to an entity listed in
