BACKGROUND:
The California Legislature passed Assembly Bill 109 (Chapter 15, Statutes of 2011), which transferred responsibility
for supervising certain lower-level inmates and parolees from the California Department of Corrections and
Rehabilitation (CDCR) to counties. Assembly Bill 109 (AB109) took effect on October 1, 2011 and realigned three
major areas of the criminal justice system. On a prospective basis, the legislation:
• Transferred the location of incarceration for lower-level offenders (specified nonviolent, 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;

Subject:APPOINTMENT OF THE CY2015 COMMUNITY CORRECTIONS PARTNERSHIP (CCP) AND
CCP-EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
>
• Transferred 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); and
• Transferred the custody responsibility for parole and PRCS revocations to local jail, administered by county
sheriffs.
AB109 also created an Executive Committee of the local Community Corrections Partnership (CCP) and tasked it
with recommending a Realignment Plan (Plan) to the county Board of Supervisors for implementation of the
criminal justice realignment. The Community Corrections Partnership is identified in statute as the following:
Community Corrections Partnership
1. Chief Probation Officer (Chair)
2. Presiding Judge (or designee)
3. County supervisor, CAO, or a designee of the BOS
4. District Attorney
5. Public Defender
6. Sheriff
7. Chief of Police
8. Head of the County department of social services
9. Head of the County department of mental health
10. Head of the County department of employment
11. Head of the County alcohol and substance abuse programs
12. Head of the County Office of Education
13. CBO representative with experience in rehabilitative services for criminal offenders
14. Victims’ representative
Later in 2011, the Governor signed Assembly Bill 117 (Chapter 39, Statutes of 2011), which served as “clean up”
legislation to AB109. Assembly Bill 117 (AB117) changed, among other things, the composition of the local
CCP-Executive Committee. The CCP-Executive Committee is currently identified in statute as the following:
Community Corrections Partnership-Executive Committee
1. Chief Probation Officer (Chair)
2. Presiding Judge (or designee)
3. District Attorney
4. Public Defender
5. Sheriff
6. A Chief of Police
7. The head of either the County department of social services, mental health, or alcohol and drug services (as
designated by the board of supervisors)
Although AB109 and AB117 collectively place the majority of initial planning activities for Realignment on the
local CCP, it is important to note that neither piece of legislation cedes powers vested in a county Board of
Supervisors’ oversight of and purview over how AB109 funding is spent. Once the Plan is adopted, the Board of
Supervisors may choose to implement that Plan in any manner it may wish.
Today’s recommended actions were approved by the Public Protection Committee (PPC) at the November 2014
meeting. The Committee recommends an appointment term of one-year for all non ex-officio seats and plans to
make appointment/reappointment recommendations to the Board of Supervisors annually. The PPC continues to
acknowledge that, under California law, the Police Chief seat is appointed by the Board of Supervisors and
recommends that the appointee be rotated between the cities with the highest number of AB 109 population
(which currently are Richmond, Pittsburg, Antioch and Concord). The PPC is recommending the appointment of
Police Chief Brian Addington from the City of Pittsburg Concord for to serve on the CY2015 CCP and
CCP-Executive Committees.
There is no recommendation yet for the CBO representative seat. At the November 2014 meeting, the PPC
directed staff to refer an individual ultimately nominated by the PPC to the Community Advisory Board for
discussion. Once discussion had been completed, the individual would be nominated to the full Board of
Supervisors for appointment. Since that process has not yet been completed and it is important to make the
remaining appointments prior to January 9, 2015 budget deliberations by the CCP and the CCP Executive
Committee, today's action will appoint nominees approved by the PPC at the November 2014 meeting.
Community input will be integrated into the January 9, 2015 budget deliberations from the CAB and members of
the public in attendance.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The Community Corrections Partnership (CCP) and CCP-Executive Committee will not be formally seated for
calendar year 2015. The CCP and CCP Executive Committee will be holding FY 2015/16 budget hearings on
January 9, 2015. Negative action would delay the AB 109 budget process and risk coordination with the County
Budget development process.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
No impact.
