RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Resolution No. 2015/421, approving the side letter between Contra Costa County and the Deputy Sheriff's Association (DSA), Rank and File Unit, to supersede and replace subsection a. of Section 10.2, to change from a tri-annual to a bi-annual shift bidding process in certain situations.

FISCAL IMPACT:

None. This is an administrative agreement and has no fiscal impact on its own.

BACKGROUND:

The Sheriff’s Office has an operational need to align shift changes in the patrol and detention divisions to streamline the movement process between detention and patrol shift assignments. The reduced frequency in staff assignment changes provides for a more consistent service model to the community. Therefore, the bidding cycle needs to be changed from tri-annually to bi-annually for specific classifications within the DSA MOU.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

This shift change model for specific classifications was implemented for a one year trial period and proven to be a more effective operational model.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If the side letter is not approved, the Sheriff's Office will continue with tri-annual bidding, which may result in operational coverage issues.
