Rupf, Sheriff-Coroner County DATE: September 20,2001 SUBJECT: Contract Amendment with Sentencing Concepts, Incorporated SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION I, RECOMMENDED ACTION: APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Sheriff, or designee, to sign a contract amendment on behalf of the County with Sentencing Concepts, Incorporated to extend the contract from October 1, 2001 to December 31, 2001. 11. FINANCIAL IMPACT: NONE. No additional funds requested. III. BACKGROUND/REASON(S) FOR RECOMMENDATION(S): Certain inmates referred to the Office of the Sheriff for out-of-custody programs cannot be accommodated due to their residing outside of Contra Costa County. Section 1203.016 of the Penal Code authorizes the Sheriff, with the approval of the Board of Supervisors, to enter into a contract with a private company to provide electronic home monitoring services inmates outside of the County. The Office of the Sheriff has been contracting with Sentencing Concepts for several years. The current contract extension expires on September 30, 2001. The Office of the Sheriff is working with the Purchasing Division to complete the bidding process to contract with another vendor. There are several inmates remaining in current program supervised by Sentencing Concepts. Those inmates will complete their sentence no later that December 31, 2001. It is recommended that they complete their program with the current vendor. IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION: The Office of the Sheriff does not have the internal capacity to monitor individuals in out-of- custody programs outside of Contra Costa County. Therefore, those low risk inmates currently being supervised by Sentencing Concepts would have to be retained in one of the detention facilities at a greater cost to the County.
