HomeMy WebLinkAboutMINUTES - 05192009 - C.49RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Sheriff-Coroner to expend funds from County Service
Area (CSA) P-6 Zone Central Administrative Base (CAB) Fund to provide extended police
protection services in the Discovery Bay community.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The services are proposed to be effective June 1, 2009. The 2009/10 Adopted Budget
anticipated a transfer from the CSA P-6 CAB Fund to support police services for the
Discovery Bay zones. Therefore, the recommended action will have no additional impact on
the County General Fund.
BACKGROUND:
History:

Subject:ALLOCATION OF P-6 CENTRAL ADMINISTRATIVE BASE FUNDING FOR DISCOVERY BAY
ZONES
the Board of Supervisors formed new zones for each new major and minor subdivision
within CSA P-6, and held elections that approved a special tax for police protection services
in each new zone. The special tax proceeds are deposited in individual zone funds within the
County Treasury. Each January, the Auditor transfers the annual zone special tax proceeds
into a special revenue fund in the County Treasury, named the Police Protection Services
Central Administrative Base (CAB) Fund (262900). The CAB Fund consolidates all revenue
generated by the 110 current CSA P-6 Zones, for more efficient administration and
optimization of program funding.
Since its inception in 1983, CSA P-6 has generated just over $5.5 million. The current
balance in the CAB fund is approximately $3.5 million. Currently, there are 110 zones,
comprising 5322 parcels in CSA P-6. These zones currently generate approximately $1.14
million per year, due substantially to the burgeoning new development in East County. It is
also important to note that until this fiscal year, the annual revenue for the entire CAB Fund
has not exceeded $560,000 for all 110 zones.
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
Proposal:
As of June 20, 2008, the projected P-6 zone revenues for FY 2008/2009 in the Discovery
Bay community is $548,086 (Zones 500-504). The Office of the Sheriff proposes to expend
those funds in the Discovery Bay community as follows:
1. Two Resident Deputy Sheriffs-Discovery Bay $392,700
(Maximum cost per year $186,000, including OPEB liability)
2. Patrol Vehicle $ 50,915
(Initial purchase, equipment and first year operation expense)
3. Crime Prevention – Sheriff’s Specialist- Discovery Bay $ 85,859
Total Proposed Fiscal Years 2008/2009/2010 Expenditure: $529,474
The proposed Zone Fund expenditures are irrespective of any countywide service
adjustments resulting from recent budget reductions.
