RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 21993 to add one (1) Sheriff's Community Service Officer (64VI) (represented) position at salary plan and grade VN5 1336 ($4,472 - $5,436) in the Sheriff's Office - Patrol Division to serve the Discovery Bay community.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact to the Office of the Sheriff General Fund. The position is 100% funded through CSA P-6 Zone funding from Discovery Bay zones. The annual salary of a Sheriff's Community Service Officer is $126,941.11 with annual retirement cost of $17,508.12.

BACKGROUND:

The Discovery Bay P6 Citizens Advisory Committee (CAC) recommends the expenditure of P6 funds to provide additional assistance related to speed enforcement in the Discovery Bay area. Adding a Sheriff’s Community Service Officer would provide an enhanced level of public safety for the community and come at a reduced cost to the taxpayers compared to that of a sworn deputy. The CAC has determined that if approved, the addition of a Sheriff’s Community Service Officer would help address the increase in requests for the Office of the Sheriff to assist in speed related enforcement for the Discovery Bay area.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Failure to approve the utilization of Discovery Bay P-6 funds to provide the addition of a Sheriff’s Community Service Officer will result in a continual increase in un-addressed calls for assistance into the Office of the Sheriff. As the cost of a Sheriff’s Community Service Officer is substantially less than a sworn officer, this is a cost-effective use of P-6 monies. Failure to approve will impact the safety and well-being of the Discovery Bay citizenry.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

No impact.
