FROM: Phil Batchelor Contra
County Administrator CWIa
DATE: June 16, 1988 C G^
SUBJECT: Legislation: Senate Bill 1664 (Presley)
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECONIMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a position of support for SB 1664 by Senator Presley which
would authorize a $620 million bond issue on the November 18 ,
1988 ballot for jails and county juvenile facilities.
BACKGROUND:
A statewide study of county juvenile facilities identifies the
current need of $75 million in capital construction costs. By
1995, the need will have grown to $395 million.
Senator Presley has introduced SB 1664 which, as amended May 27,
1988, calls for a $620 million bond issue to be placed on the
November ballot. The bond issue would include $495 million for
county jails; $75 million for juvenile facilities, and $50
million for youth centers and shelters.
The County Probation Officer is working closely with the Chief
Probation Officers Association of California on this bill and
recommends that the Board support it. We concur with Mr. Buck' s
recommendation in view of the current overcrowding at the
Juvenile Hall, and in view of the often documented need for
additional facilities for runaways in this County.
SB 1664 passed the Senate July 2, 1987 by a vote of 29: 0. The
bill passed the Assembly Public Safety Committee August 24, 1987
by a vote of 4 : 0. The bill passed the Assembly Ways and Means
Committee June 15 , 1988 by a vote of 22: 1 and is now on second
reading on the Assembly floor.
