FISCAL IMPACT:
$20,689,520, 100% State AB109 Public Safety Realignment Funding. The 2012/13 Realignment Budget
continues services implemented in fiscal year 2011/12, expands some programming, and authorizes new
programming. For this reason, although today's action includes a Recommended Budget of $20,689,520,
$4,660,783 is currently appropriated in the county budget and $12,378,737 in new appropriations are being
recommended. An additional $3,650,000 is recommended to remain unappropriated for expenditures as outlined
in the Recommended Budget Summary (attached).
BACKGROUND:
In 2011, the California Legislature passed and the Governor signed into law the Public Safety Realignment Act
(Assembly Bill 109), which transfers responsibility for supervising specific low-level inmates and parolees from
the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) to counties. Assembly Bill 109 (AB 109)
took effect on October 1, 2011 and realigns three major areas of the criminal justice system. On a prospective
basis, the legislation:
Transfers the location of incarceration for lower-level offenders (specified non-violent, non-serious,
non-sex offenders) from state prison to local county jail and provides for an expanded role for post-release
supervision for these offenders;
Transfers responsibility for post-release supervision of lower-level offenders (those released from prison
after having served a sentence for a non-violent, non-serious, and non-sex offense) from the state to the
county level by creating a new category of supervision called Post-Release Community Supervision (PRCS);
Transfers the housing responsibility for parole and PRCS revocations to local jail custody
AB 109 also tasked the local Community Corrections Partnership (CCP) with recommending to the County Board
of Supervisors a plan for implementing criminal justice realignment. The Board of Supervisors adopted the
Contra Costa County Realignment Plan on October 4, 2011 (Agenda Item No. D.5), as recommended by the
Executive Committee of the CCP. The Executive Committee of the CCP is composed of the County Probation
Officer (Chair), Sheriff-Coroner, a Chief of Police (represented by the Richmond Police Chief), District Attorney,
Public Defender, Presiding Judge of the Superior Court or designee (represented by the Court Executive Officer),
and County Behavioral Health Director.
In June 2012, the County was informed that the estimated 2012/13 and 2013/14 Realignment funding allocations
were increased to $19,285,330 from the 2011/12 allocation of $4,572,950 (9-month allocation). Since that time,
the Executive Committee has met monthly to discuss program objectives and created an Ad Hoc Committee to
develop an operational plan (attached) as a means to evaluate programming options. The Ad Hoc committee met
almost weekly over the course of two months and received input from various county departments, local law
enforcement, and members of the community. On November 9, 2012, the CCP Executive Committee adopted a
finalized Operational Plan and on December 4, 2012 adopted a 2012/13 Public Safety Realignment budget for
recommendation to the Board of Supervisors.
Today's actions would approve the 2012/13 AB109 Public Safety Realignment budget, including the appropriation
of new funding and the addition of positions in county departments to implement programming outlined in the
budget plan. Approval of new revenue appropriations within the county budget requires a four-fifths majority vote
(Government Code § 29088) and position augmentations require a simple majority of the Board of Supervisors.
The proposed budget also contemplates a revenue appropriation of $4,035,000 for community programming,
which similarly requires a four-fifths majority vote of the Board for approval. It is also recommended that the
Request for Proposals process be referred to the County Administrator’s Office for processing and coordination
with the Community Corrections Partnership, Public Protection Committee and the Board of Supervisors.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Negative action would result in net expenditure appropriations, estimated revenue and related personnel actions
not being approved for 2012/13 AB109 programming.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
No impact.
