RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the County Probation Officer, or designee, to apply for and accept the Intensive Probation Supervision for High Risk Felony & Repeat DUI Offenders grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, in an amount not to exceed $373,541, to provide intensive supervision of felony DUI probationers for the period of October 31, 2017 through September 30, 2018.

FISCAL IMPACT:

100% State revenue in the amount of approximately $373,541, no County match. The grant will fund two, full-time Deputy Probation Officers, as well as training and equipment costs.

BACKGROUND:

This is an on-going project, first awarded to the Probation Department in 2006. This project enables the Probation Department to more effectively monitor DUI felons, using intensive supervision techniques, which significantly improves compliance, reduces recidivism and reduces the number of persons injured or killed in alcohol related collisions.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The Probation Department will be unable to apply for and accept the grant without approval of the Board of Supervisors.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

Not applicable.
