SUBJECT: Use of Cy Pres Fund for Items Needed by D.A. Special Operations Unit
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATIONS&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. RECOMMENDATIONS:
1. Authorize the release of$ 27,157 from the reserve/designation in the District Attorney's Consumer
Protection Fund (Cy Pres Fund-- Fund 112400) into the fund balance of Fund 112400, District Attorney
Consumer Protection.
2. Approve appropriation and revenue adjustments for the purchase of computer equipment and security
improvements.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
NONE. There is no net county cost associated with this action. The expenditures will be charged to the
District Attorney's Consumer Protection Special Revenue Fund, which was established by Board Order on
April 6, 1993 as a Cy Pres restitution fund. which can be used only by the District Attorney's Consumer and
Environmental Unit(Special Operations)to further its mission. Funds are deposited in the Special Revenue
Fund by court order. Supplantation is prohibited.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff in the Special Operations Unit have no computers or outdated ones. The new computers will increase
the efficiency of the Unit, which could, in some situations, improve the Unit's ability to generate revenue for
the General Fund. The adjustment will also fund minor modific ns to the office to improve security for
unit staff,to a level consistent with other locations of the Distr' ttorney's Office.
