RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE Appropriations and Revenue Adjustment No. 5036 authorizing new revenue in the amount of $318,299 in Community Corrections Performance Incentives Fund(0477) from the State of California and appropriating it for the provision of services for the adult felony probation population and authorizing new revenue in the amount of $318,299 in Probation Programs (0308) and appropriate it for the addition of staff in the adult probation division.
FISCAL IMPACT:
This action increases revenue by $318,299. 100% State; No match is required.
BACKGROUND:
The California Community Corrections Performance Incentive Act of 2009 (SB 678) established a system of performance-based funding that shares state General Fund savings with county probation departments when they demonstrate success in reducing the number of adult felony probationers going to state prison because of committing new crimes or violating the terms of probation. This measure is designed to help decrease California's prison admissions by reducing criminal behavior, and thus relieve prison overcrowding and save public funds.
