SUBJECT: Work Alternative Program: Revision of Fees
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)6 BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I . RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve revised fee schedule, as recommended by the Sheriff-
Coroner, to increase fees paid by every person accepted as a
participant in the Work Alternative Program, as follows:
Interview fee of $40 . 00 plus $5. 00 for each day of work
scheduled, based on his or her ability to pay.
II . FINANCIAL ' IMPACT:
Approval of this authorization will enable the Work
Alternative Program to continue to operate with the pro rata
cost of administration paid by each participant based on his
or her ability to pay, with no program cost incurred by the
County.
III . REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION:.
Since the inception of the Work Alternative Program (WAP) , there
has been a continual increase in the number of referrals from the
courts . The continual growth of the program has necessitated
increasing the program' s staffing. This increase in staffing,
coupled with the continual growth of the program requires additional
office space as well as maintaining existing budgetary needs.
IV. BACKGROUND:
In 1983 , the Board of Supervisors, by Board Order (Resolution No.
83/361) established the Work Alternative Program pursuant to the
authority granted the Board of Supervisors in Penal Code Section
4024 . 2 . The program'sfees are currently 1 applicat ' fee and
$3 for each day of work.

Re: Work Alternative Fees Increase
V. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Budgetary needs for the operation of the Work Alternative Program for
fiscal year 1989-1990 require $589,000 in expenditures with estimated
revenue of $430,00. Projections indicate that the Work Alternative
Program can reasonably expect to complete 10,000 interview and schedule
50,000 days of work. The fee increased to $40.00 and $5.00 for each day
of work scheduled will have the following results:
