FROM: Kiri Torre, County Contra
Municipal Court Administrator Costa
DATE: November 20, 1990 County
SUBJECT: Increase in Revolving Fund for the
Bay Municipal Court
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I . Recommendation:
Request the Board of Supervisors approve for the Bay Municipal Court
an increase from $750 . 00 to $925 . 00 in the revolving fund account.
II . Reason/Background:
The current revolving fund is divided into two categories :
( 1 ) change fund till money ( $465 . 00) and ( 2 ) Petty cash ( $260 . 00)
The change fund covers the financial activities of a total of 13
cashiers in this office when it is necessary to make change for
customers . The thirteen cashiers are in the Traffic, Criminal and
Civil Divisions .
PROBLEM: We find that the eight deputy clerk (cashiers) in the Civil
Division are experiencing difficulties and consuming too much time
trying to provide change of monies because they are permitted only
$10 . 00 each. This amount is too small and needs to be adjusted to at
least $35 . 00 for each cashier in the Civil Division.
III . Financial Impact:
None
IV. Consequence of Negative Action:
Continued delays in servicing customers . Employees merging till money
with own personal funds in order to help customer, causing for staff a
breakdown in accountability of funds for each cashier.
