Rupf, Sheriff-CoronerOUrlt�/ DATE: May 8,2008 C,OST'9 CO n`t'{ SP 3 SUBJECT: HEARING to ADOPT Resolution 2008/303 adopting new fees and increasing existing fees for the Office of the Sheriff-Coroner's Custody Alternative Program. SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION RECOMMENDED ACTION: HEARING to ADOPT Resolution 2008/303 adopting new fees and increasing existing fees for the Office of the Sheriff-Coroner's Custody Alternative Program. FINANCIAL IMPACT: No County Costs. Revenue generated by fees for participating pay for the provision of services in the Custody Alternative Program. BACKGROUND: Penal Code Section 4024.2(e) specifies that the Board of Supervisor's may prescribe reasonable rules and regulations under which a work release program is operated. In 1983, the Board of Supervisors established the Custody Alternative Program. As a condition of participation in the Custody Alternative Program, the inmate shall give his or her consent in writing to comply with the rules and regulations of the program. The policies and procedures must be approved by the Board annually. There are no changes to policies and procedures from when the Board last took action on October 16, 2007 (Item C.85). However, fees to participating inmates must cover the costs of providing alternatives to custody, such as the Work Alternative Program and Electronic Home Detention. To that end the Department requests increases to the following fees, without which the costs of providing these alternatives will be borne by the County. • Work Alternative Program fees from $10.00 to $ 12.00 per participant per day. • Electronic Home Detention and County Parole Program from $13.00 to $15.00 per participant per day. • Global Positioning System under the Electronic Home Detention Program set the fee at $17.00 per participant per day. • Sobrietor(sobriety monitor) set the fee at $10.00 per participant per day. • Sobrietor in addition to Electronic Home Detention or Global Positioning System set the fee at an additional $4.50 per participant per day over the EHD or GPS fee, above. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION: A decision not to increase the Custody Alternative Program fees will result in County funds being required to offset the increased costs of providing this service. Without this program the County will realize vastly more expensive alternative of holding participants in custody.
