Summary:
The attached schedule of authorized payments to the Sheriff includes the adopted Fiscal Year 2016 (FY16) budget appropriation of $1,750,000.00. As of June 30, 2016, $1,331,290.00 in grants and $263,280.00 in other agreements were allocated for a total of $1,594,570.00. No payments were made during the third quarter of FY16.
Background Information:
In an effort to increase efficiency and reduce administrative time in enabling the Sheriff to receive the appropriation related to grant awards received and service contracts, a lump sum was appropriated as part of the budget adoption in an amount commensurate with total awards in past years. The lump sum is not immediately included in the monthly payments to the Sheriff. As new grant awards are received or contracts are negotiated, the Sheriff will provide documentation to the Board and request appropriation from the lump sum. Upon review by the Office of Management and Budget, the monthly payment schedule to the Sheriff will be adjusted accordingly. If the lump sum is exhausted, future grant awards or contracts will be presented to the Board as a Budget Resolution. This process mirrors the process utilized for the Law Enforcement Trust Fund.
Fiscal Impact:
Appropriation of $1,750,000.00 is currently budgeted in FY16 for the purpose of processing requests from the Sheriff. As of June 30, 2016, $1,590,570.00 has been allocated.
