Fingerprint Identification Fund)
The Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors RESOLVES that the Recommended
Action herein is taken:
I. Recommended Action.
Adopts a resolution implementing Section 76009 of the Government Code
establishing a County Automated Fingerprint Identification Fund in Contra
Costa County.
II. Financial Impact.
The County Automated Fingerprint Identification Fund will receive an
estimated $300,000 per year.
III. Background.
A. On September 27, 1987, the Governor signed SB 1148 (Ch. 1239, Stats.
1987) , which added Section 76009 to the Government Code which allows
the Board of Supervisors to establish by resolution a County
Automated Fingerprint Identification Fund.
B. The revenues for the Fund are from a $.50 (fifty cent) 'assessment
for each $10.00 fine, penalty, or forfeiture imposed and collected
by the courts for all criminal offenses and certain violations of
the Vehicle Code.
C. The Contra Costa County Remote Access Network (RAN) Board strongly
supports the implementation of Government Code § 76009.
D. The Contra Costa County RAN Board recommends that the Fund be used
for the enhancement, replacement, and depreciation of the Contra
Costa System and the shared main operating systems located in Alameda
County.
IV. Consequences of Negative Action.
Without the Fund, enhancements to increase the level of service to User
Agencies would be delayed or not implemented.
V. General Discussion.
If Contra Costa County becomes an Optional Trial Court Funding County, the
revenue for the County Automated Fingerprint Identification Fund may no
longer be available. Current interpretation of the Trial Court Funding
Statutes (Ch. 1211 , Stats. 1987) does not allow an Option County to collect
this revenue. Numerous organizations and individuals are pursuing
legislative and other options to exempt the Automated Fingerprint Fund from
the provisions of Chapter 1211. 1 hereby certify that this Is a true and correct copy of
an action taken and entered on the minutes of the
Board of Supervisors on the date shown.
