RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 25667 to add one (1) Probation Manager (7AGB) (Unrepresented) position at salary plan and grade B25 1899 ($9,051.46 - $11,002.11) in the Probation Department.

FISCAL IMPACT:

An annual cost of approximately $285,386 which includes $111,435 in pension costs. This cost is 100% funded by California Community Corrections Performance Incentives Act (SB678) revenue.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this action is not approved, it will impede the Probation Department from adequately supporting and supervising re-entry and pretrial services.

BACKGROUND:

With the recent expansion of the AB 109 units, due to the early and rapid releases of inmates from the California Department of Correction and Rehabilitation, there will be an expected increase of workload in the Pretrial unit. Adding a Probation Manager would provide direct oversight necessary to these units to ensure that the needs of the Probation Department are met. The Probation Manager position would also allow the Probation Department to stay in alignment with the department's commitment to Evidence Based Practices.
