RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the County Probation Officer, or designee, to apply for and execute a contract to accept an Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant from the California Emergency Management Agency (CalEMA) in an amount not to exceed $1,190,293 for the implementation of the Evidence-Based Probation Supervision (EBPS) Program pursuant to Senate Bill (SB) 678 (Chapter 608, Statutes of 2009) for the period October 1, 2009 through September 30, 2012.

FISCAL IMPACT:

$1,189,293; 100% Federal pass-through, CFDA No. 16.803. Funds were appropriated during the 2009/10 Phase 1 re-balance in anticipation of this grant award. The grant provides a three-year performance period; however, the entire grant amount was used to balance the 2009/10 budget. Funding in future years will come from a portion of cost savings to the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) pursuant to SB-678 (Chapter 608, Statutes of 2009).
BACKGROUND:

On October 11, 2009, the Governor signed SB 678 (Chapter 608, Statutes of 2009) into law. This legislation provides a share of State cost savings to counties that reduce the number of probationers referred to State Prison. To aid in this effort, the State has provided seed funding for the establishment of evidence-based supervision programs in county Probation Departments using federal funds. Fiscal year 2009/10 is the base year for the future savings calculation with distribution of shared savings commencing in fiscal year 2010/11.
