RECOMMENDATION(S):
Recommendation
That the Board of Supervisors:

2. Approve the attached Supplemental Budget for Humboldt County Probation Juvenile Hall budget unit 1100-234;
Body
SOURCE OF FUNDING:
Humboldt County Probation Trust Fund 3782
DISCUSSION:
In May 2021, the Probation Department was finally able to take occupancy of the newly constructed Juvenile Hall facility. The new facility is much larger than the previous facility and as such, maintenance needs will be greater in the new facility. In order to maintain the new building and for the health and safety of the juveniles and staff in the facility, an industrial floor scrubber is a necessary purchase. This piece of equipment was initially budgeted for in Fiscal Year 2020-21, however, due to supply chain issues impacting parts and deliveries, Humboldt County Probation was not able to physically receive the floor scrubber prior to the end of the year. Due to the delay, the purchase will now need to be made in the current fiscal year. This purchase meets the criteria of a fixed asset and due to the cost exceeding $10,000, the fixed asset line will also require the approval of your Board, along with the supplemental budget.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The funds exist within the Probation Trust Fund 3782, which has a current balance of $167,529. There is no impact to the General Fund.
STRATEGIC FRAMEWORK:
This action supports your Board’s Strategic Framework by providing for and maintaining infrastructure .
OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT:
None
ALTERNATIVES TO STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
The Board may elect to deny either this fixed asset line or the supplemental budget request however that is not recommended as this purchase is needed in order to maintain the new Juvenile Hall facility.
