DATE: July 20, 1994
SUBJECT: PRISONER TRANSPORTATION AGREEMENT WITH LOS ANGELES
SPEVjj(!61VJWW i'}� ?8,A�NDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
jAjuthorize Chairperson to execute agreement with Los Angeles County Sheriff's Office for transportation of
inmates at a cost of .25 per mile (present rate) plus meals for the period of July 1, 1994 to June 30, 1999.
(Corrects and supersedes item 1.92 on 7/12/94 agenda.)
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Estimated cost for fiscal 1994-1999 is $12,000. If Contra Costa provided this service directly, it would cost
between $50,0004100,000 per year. During the past eight (8) years, the expense incurred has been between
$2,500 and $3,000 per year.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND:
This corrected order is needed to supersede the previous order of July 12, 1994 concerning agenda item
1.92 which contained an error in the contract dates. During the past eight (8) years, Contra Costa has had
a contract with the County of Los Angeles which reimburses that County for the transportation of prisoners.
This contract expires July 30, 1994. The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department operates a bus up and down
the Interstate 5 corridor which transports Contra Costa prisoners from Los Angeles to this County and the Los
Angeles prisoners from this County to Los Angeles County. Without this agreement, we would be obligated
to go to Los Angeles and pick up our own prisoners at an estimated annual cost of$50,000-$100,000. Since
Los Angeles County has a large number of prisoners to be picked up from around the State, they have found
it more cost effective to operate their own bus service, which turns out also to be cost effective for the other
participating counties. The proposed contract would continue the agreement for another four years ending June
30, 1999. The annual mileage cost would be adjustable annually, and there is a 30 day cancellation clause in
the event of any irreconcilable difficulties.
CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Failure to approve this agreement will result in a significant expenditure of funds for transportation of inmates
either by private contractor, or an as-needed basis, or the expenditure of costs asso with salary and
benefits of two officers, and the purchase and maintenance ofJuibl vehicle c ed t this purpose.
