Background
The Assistant District Attorney retired in FY 12/13 resulting in a large one-time payout that was not included in the budget. In addition, there have been extaordinary expenses related to two recently solved cold cases that were not anticipated in the budget. The District Attorney has managed to absorb a large portion of these costs with savings in other areas, but is not able to absorb 100%. General Fund Contingency is available to fund these one-time costs.
Action(s) to be taken following Board approval
Board Chairman to sign budget transfer and forward to the Auditor-Controller for processing.
