Title
District Attorney's Office recommending the Board approve a budget transfer establishing budget and appropriations within Department FY 2010/2011 budget for purchase and installation of TAB System (4/5's vote required).
FUNDING: Special Revenue Fund.

Total Funding Available $8,256.85
Change To Net County Cost $0
Fiscal Impact/Change to Net County Cost: There will be no increase to net county cost.
Background: The special revenue fund is derived from federal and state asset forfeitures. These monies are collected and deposited according to Health and Safety Code Section 11489. Funds disbursed through this account cannot be used to supplant any state or local funds that would, in the absence of this funding, be made available to support the law enforcement agency.
Reason for Recommendation: The District Attorney's Office is required to keep both misdemeanor and felony files on site for 5 years. Due to the number of case files retained on site storage has been an ongoing challenge for the department. With the recent move of Human Services in South Lake Tahoe the District Attorney's Office was able to obtain the TAB filing system from that department. This property transfer will allow the District Attorney's Office to maintain approximately 10,000 filies on site within a relatively small space in addition to saving the department approximately thirty thousand dollars if purchased directly from TAB. The figure above represents the cost of a new floor tracking system along with the installation of disassembled shelving.
Action to be taken following Board approval: Budget transfer to be signed by Board of Supervisors and posted by the Auditors Office. Once the job is completed the invoice will be submitted to the Auditor for payment.
