Background
Assembly Bill (AB) 109, titled "2011 Realignment Legislation Addressing Public Safety" was signed by the Governor on April 4, 2011. This bill was effective on June 30, 2011 having been funded through the state budget process. Since 2011, the El Dorado County Community Corrections Partnership (CCP), a legislatively established planning committee for local justice realignment, has met and established annual plans and annual realignment budgets for approval by the Board of Supervisors. The first year plan / budget (Fiscal Year 2011/2012) is completed / implemented. The "Second Year Plan" (Fiscal Year 2012 /2013) was approved by the Board of Supervisors on July 31, 2012 and is being implemented by all involved agencies.
The legislation directs that the Chief Probation Officer is the Chair of the CCP for each County. The Chief Probation Officer called the CCP into noticed public session on June 13, 2013. During this meeting, the CCP Executive Committee voted and approved by a majority vote, as required by law, to approve the Public Safety Realignment Implementation Plan Budget Fiscal Year 2013/2014 and the Third Year Public Safety Realignment Implementation Plan (Fiscal Year 2013/2014). Both are attached for the Board's review. In addition, the CCP Executive Committee approved the recommendation, under agenda item CCP 13-010, to allocate $240,000 of prior year fund balance to cover the increased cost of the CFMG (California Forensic Medical Group) contract for Fiscal Year 2013/2014.
The Public Safety Realignment Implementation Plan for Fiscal Year 2013/2014 includes a range of services from secure custody and enforcement through treatment and education to include the new Community Corrections Center (CCC) under the direction of the Chief Probation Officer and partner agencies. This facility is anticipated to open in the first quarter of Fiscal Year 2013/2014. The goal of the plan is to ensure offender accountability and public safety, by best use of jail services, alternatives to custody, community supervision and treatment. By achieving safety, accountability and offender success through evidence-based practices, the CCP / Executive Committee is planning for the best local outcome for the citizens of El Dorado County.
During Fiscal Year 2013/2014 the CCP / Executive Committee will continue to review service levels needed to most effectively address the realigned duties and responsibilities now assumed by the County, and will return to the Board of Supervisors with a "forth year" plan to address Fiscal Year 2014/2015 and into the following years.
Reason for Recommendation
Pursuant to Penal Code Section 1230.1 (c) and the provisions of AB 109 (2011), the Chief Probation Officer, as Chair of the CCP / Executive Committee, brings to the Board of Supervisors the approved Public Safety Realignment Implementation Plan Budget for Fiscal Year 2013/2014 for final acceptance by the Board of Supervisors.
On behalf of the CCP / Executive Committee, the Chief Probation Officer, as the Chair of the CCP / Executive Committee, recommends the Board of Supervisors review and accept the Public Safety Realignment Implementation Plan Budget Fiscal Year 2013/2014 and the Third Year Public Safety Realignment Implementation Plan (Fiscal Year 2013/2014)
Action(s) to be taken following Board approval
Following acceptance by the Board, the CCP will proceed with implementation of the Public Safety Realignment Implementation Plan for Fiscal Year 2013/2014, including the use of $240,000 of prior year fund balance for CFMG contract costs.
