The total cost to the City of San Clemente for the FY 2019-20 contract is $16,345,966, which includes regional/shared staff.
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. FY 2019-20 cost is 5.57 percent higher
($862,736) than the current fiscal year final adjusted agreement of
$15,483,229. 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) and an increase in Sheriff overhead. The Board ratified the ACLEM agreement on
June 26, 2018, the OCMA agreement on
April 24, 2018 and the OCEA agreement on July 31, 2018. The AOCDS agreement was approved by the Board
on September 6, 2016. Additionally, one full-time Crime
Prevention Specialist position, two full-time Deputy Sheriff II - Patrol
positions and overtime were added in the FY 2019-20 agreement, offset with the
deletion of one full-time Community Service Officer position and the Extra Help
Crime Prevention position.
Since there are salary and benefit issues that remain to be resolved for the current labor contracts for employees represented by various bargaining units (i.e., OCMA, ACLEM, OCEA, AOCDS), and which are not reflected in the contract cost, the proposed agreement includes provisions that require the City of San Clemente to pay for the cost of any increase in compensation or benefits, or to adjust the service level to stay within the original maximum obligation.
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 San Clemente City Council approval before presenting the agreement to the Board for approval. The San Clemente City Council agendized this agreement for approval at its June 18, 2019 meeting.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The City of San Clemente is responsible for 100 percent of the costs related to this agreement. The FY 2019-20 Budget for the Sheriff-Coroner Department, as presented to the Board of Supervisors, includes appropriations and revenue for this agreement based on the FY 2018-19 agreement. Adjustments to reconcile positions with related appropriations and revenue to the adopted FY 2019-20 agreement will be requested in the FY 2019-20 First Quarter Budget Report.
STAFFING IMPACT:
Position changes associated with this agreement may impact the total number of authorized positions for the Sheriff-Coroner Department. The changes reflected below are agreed upon modifications to staffing levels within the proposed agreement in comparison to prior years:
Modifications: |
Add 2.00 Deputy Sheriff II - Patrol positions Add 1.00 Crime Prevention Specialist position Delete 1.00 Community Services Officer position Eliminate Extra Help Crime Prevention Specialist position |
