2. Approve appropriation'and revenue',adjustments for required payment to the State and for remodeling

None. There is no net County cost associated with these actions. There are sufficient funds in the
Special Revenue fund to cover the costs.

Assembly Bill 150 (Chapter 479, Statutes of 1999), Section 6, required that counties calculate, certify,
and remit to the California Department ofServices, the amount of unexpended and unencumbered
excess child support incentive funds, and required the California'Department of Finance to audit County
remittances of such funds'. According to the Department of Finance'audit:.findings, additional excess
incentives funds in the amount of $ 1,490,400 were identified`as available for reversion to the State
General Fund, and Contra Costa County has been invoiced by the State for that amount. This action will
appropriate the funds necessary to make the required payment.

This action will also transferfunding for the District Attorney remodel of the third floor of l l l l
Ward Street into a capital account. This project;provides additional space for staffing due to>
recent expansion of the District Attorney's domestic violence program. In addition, it allows for
implementation of the District Attorney's'automation system,which required more space for
servers, staff computer trainer,video conferencing, etc,which will allow the Office to take
advantage of modern technological efficiencies.
CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Failure to pay on the State invoice would violate State law and my result in future action by the
State to recover the funds to which it is entitled. Without the funding transferred to the District
Attorney's capital project, funding from the general fund would be needed for the project or it
would not be completed.
