RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Sheriff-Coroner, or designee, to execute a contract with the City of Brentwood to pay the County an amount not to exceed $75,715 to provide forensic services for the period July 1, 2008 through June 30, 2009.

FISCAL IMPACT:

$75,715. 100% City of Brentwood reimbursement; Budgeted.

BACKGROUND:

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

The City of Brentwood and the Office of the Sheriff have had a long standing contract for Forensic Services that is renewed each year. Forensic services provided assist the City of Brentwood in the investigation of criminal matters and by giving court testimony when necessary.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Failure to renew the contract will result in a loss of revenue for the County and leave the City of Brentwood without forensic services and the ability to fully investigate their crime scenes, allowing criminals to evade criminal justice.
