2. |
If no law enforcement services agreement between the County of Orange and the City of Aliso Viejo has been entered into by June 30, 2022, delegate to the Sheriff-Coroner authority to execute a written amendment to this law enforcement services agreement that extends the term for a specified term between July 1, 2022, and August 31, 2022, and provides that the County will continue during the period of extension to provide all or a specified part of the law enforcement services previously provided to the City of Aliso Viejo, and that the City of Aliso Viejo will pay the full costs of such services. |

The total cost to the City of Aliso Viejo for the FY 2021-22 agreement is $9,504,370 which includes regional/shared staff. The partial positions reflect cost-sharing partnerships among the City of Aliso Viejo and the cities of Laguna Hills, Laguna Niguel and Laguna Woods, which result in cost savings and operational efficiencies.
Agreement costs include salaries, wages, employee
benefits, services and supplies, transportation expenses, as well as division,
department and County (County-Wide Cost Allocation Plan) overhead. The FY 2021-22 cost is 4.55 percent higher
($414,258) than the current fiscal year final agreement of $9,090,112. The net increase is due to updated salary and
benefit changes approved by the
Association of Orange County Deputy Sheriffs (AOCDS), Association of County Law
Enforcement Managers (ACLEM), Orange County Managers Association (OCMA) and the Orange County Employees Association
(OCEA). The AOCDS agreement was approved
by the Board on October 8, 2019. The
Board approved the ACLEM, OCMA and OCEA agreements on October 22, 2019.
This agreement is submitted for approval less than 30 days prior to the start of the proposed agreement due to an extended negotiation period over the terms and conditions in the agreement, and the need to have the Aliso Viejo City Council approval before presenting the agreement to the Board for approval. The Aliso Viejo City Council approved this agreement at its June 2, 2021 meeting.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The City of Aliso Viejo is responsible for 100 percent of the costs related to this agreement. Appropriations and Revenue for this agreement are included in Budget Control 060, Sheriff-Coroner FY 2021-22 Recommended Budget. Adjustment to reconcile positions with related appropriations and revenue to the adopted FY 2021-22 agreement will be requested in the FY 2021-22 Mid-Year Budget Report.
