SHERIFF REQUESTS ADJUSTMENT OF HIS OVERTIME BUDGET Sheriff Dobeck informed the Board that he had $15,000 budgeted for overtime work, but the investigation of the Gore case has already resulted in an additional 2,000 man hours which will deplete his overtime. He further informed the Board that at the end of the Gore trial, he will be back before the Commission with an exact breakdown of what it has cost, in travel, investigation, etc., and ask for a reimbursement from the monies they have seized back into their travel account and back into their cost of overtime. The Sheriff stated that he would like the Commission to allow him to keep the monies received for the community services his department renders, above and beyond their normal services, such as directing traffic by Wendy's, at Dodgertowri, etc., and have the checks for these services written to the Sheriff's Department so that these funds can go directly back into their overtime budget rather than back to the General Fund. This would eliminate the need for him to come back to the Board again this year and ask for additional monies to subsidize their overtime pay. Administrator Wright suggested that we keep the same procedure, but let these funds automatically pass through the books. This way the Sheriff will get what he needs, and it will keep our budgetary process intact. He suggested that the Commission authorize him to make disbursements to the Sheriff's -office equivalent to the amount received for these additional services, and he will give the Board at least a quarterly report. Some discussion followed, and Administrator Wright noted that this is a direct reimbursement for a service the Sheriff is providing, and what he is suggesting is that we work out a mechanism where the Sheriff can.be reimbursed and we can keep track of it. flN MAR 7BIOX 6 °AJ 9 i9�4 CF
