Fiscal Impact/Change to Net County Cost: There will be no net county cost. The attached budget transfer will establish both the revenue and appropriation for these funds.
Background: In 2009, the District Attorney's Office was awarded $37,437 under the Justice Assistance Grant. The grant period for use of funds extends over a three year period from July 2009 through June of 2012. In January of 2012 the department requested to utilize the grant award to fund extra help for the department along with sending four staff to the California Homicide Investigators Association conference.
Reason for Recommendation: A budget transfer must be approved to establish the revenue and appropriations within the departments budget. Following the posting of the transfer the department will draw down the funds from the grant administrator and deposit into the departments budget as an offset to incurred expenses.
Action to be taken following Board approval: Chair to sign the budget transfer and forward to the auditors office for posting.
