44. CONTINGENCY FOR COURT-ORDERED FUND TRANSFERS Approve the transfer of funds, as determined to be necessary under the November 8, 2022, order in CV -07-2513-PHX-GMS Melendres v. Penzone, in an amount not to exceed $1,148,491 from the General Fund (100) to the PSB Staffing Fund (511). If the transfer is necessary under the order, approve the following adjustments to the FY 2024 budget: Decrease the Non Departmental (D470) General Fund (100) Operating (OPER) “Unre served Contingency” line (4711) expenditure budget in an amount not to exceed $1,148,491 Increase the Non Departmental (D470) General Fund (100) Compliance Operating (MEL0) “Transfer to PSB Staffing Fund” line (4712) expenditure budget in an amount not t o exceed $1,148,491 Increase the Sheriff (D500) PSB Staffing Fund (511) Compliance Operating (MEL0) revenue budget in an amount not to exceed $1,148,491 Increase the Non Departmental (D470) Non Departmental Grant Fund (249) Operating (OPER) expenditure budget in an amount not to exceed $1,148,491 Offset the fund transfer with adjustments to the Eliminations (D980) Eliminations Fund (900) Operating (OPER) revenue and expenditure budgets. The court demands that MCSO fill all 39 case investigator positi ons and reduce its backlog by clearing a minimum of 20 additional cases per month. The penalty for not filling all 39 positions is payment of three times the annual cost to recruit, hire, train, and compensate for one year a single PSB budgeted sergeant po sition each month the courts demands are not met. (Annual cost has been established and reported to be $191,415.12. Thus, the monthly penalty would be $574,245.36 per vacancy.) This request is sufficient for 2 vacancies if necessary.
