Subject:Establish the classification of Sheriff's Community Services Officer; allocate to salary schedule; add two positions;
and cancel two Sheriff's Ranger
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
classification primarily focuses on security and monitoring in our Court and Health Services Units; with a minor
Ranger presence in Field Operations and Patrol.
Adding Community Services Officers will benefit the Department in multiple ways, ultimately cost effective. As
non-sworn staff, their presence will augment sworn personnel, thus providing more comprehensive County
coverage. Additionally, these positions provide on the job training for potential recruits to choose a career as a
sworn officer. Duties may include, but are not limited to: Preparation of non-injury accidents and basic crime
reports, code enforcement, traffic and crowd control, and act as a departmental liaison with the public and outside
agencies.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Failure to establish the classification of Community Services Officer will result in further delay of the Community
Service Officer Program implementation, thereby delaying the reduction of response times for non Priority-One
call for service from the community.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
No impact.
