RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the County Administrator, or designee, to execute contracts with the cities of Richmond, Concord, Pittsburg, and Antioch in an aggregate amount not to exceed $522,000 to provide AB 109 police services for the period July 1, 2016 through June 30, 2017.
FISCAL IMPACT:
$522,000 in FY 2016/17 (100% State Public Safety Realignment)
BACKGROUND:
In 2011, the California Legislature passed the Public Safety Realignment Act (Assembly Bill 109), which transferred responsibility for supervising specific low-level inmates and parolees from the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation to counties. This Act tasked local government at the county level with developing a new approach to reducing recidivism among this population. AB 109 took effect October 1, 2011 and realigned three major areas of the criminal justice system.
