TO: Pete Kremen, County Executive FETE KREIUEN
FROM: Deane Sandell, Undersheriff ,_1 Cgt*��
SUBJECT: Budget Supplemental
The Alien Assistance Grant monies which we will be receiving this year, $134,645.00, will allow
us to do some much needed improvements to our facilities.
Our jail was built in 1982 and none of our security systems have been upgraded since then. Our
current black and white cameras and monitors do not give full security coverage of the jail. The
increased jail population from the designed 148 to the present average daily population of 230
has made the responsibility of monitoring prisoners with our outdated system very difficult.
Our outdoor recreation area cannot be used during inclement weather because rain blows through
the screened windows, making the floor slippery, creating the possibility of injury. The west
side of the jail drive - through was never screened to prevent unauthorized entry or exit. We have
experienced considerable vandalism to county vehicles parked in this area. It also creates an
unsecured area for prisoner movement.
I would like to place awnings over the outdoor recreation area windows, screen the west side of
the jail drive - through to prevent entry or exit, and replace the entire electronic monitoring system
in the jail. These improvements are long overdue and will have to be done regardless of future
expansion of the county's correctional system.
We would also like to add another work crew to the Alternative Correction Program. This
position would work exclusively on county projects. We presently have four crews working
daily in county and city parks and picking up litter of state and local roads. One of the crews
receives offsetting revenue from Bellingham Parks and the Department of Transportation.

Originally, we had envisioned providing a crew to county facility maintenance, but our crew time
has been totally committed. We now have available labor to place another crew. Building
Maintenance had originally agreed to pay $200.00 a day for this crew, up to $10,000 a year.
To adequately support the existing and new crews, we need the following items:
➢ Two more transport buses; one for the new crew, and another as a back up, filling in when a
bus goes down for repair or maintenance. Presently, if a bus goes down, we lose a day's
work.
➢ Two utility trailers with portable toilets and hand washing facilities for our road crews.
➢ Approximately $38,000 annually would be necessary for an ongoing work crew supervisor.
$10,000 should be available in offsetting revenue.
We need to instigate a justifiable Prisoner Classification System. This is legally required and
will help us in housing assignments and placement. Pierce County has classification software and
it should be feasible to write that for the AS400.

Enclosed is a budget modification request form that represents carryover
funding that is 100% state money. These moneys will offset local expenses and
support various projects. An example of the projects to be supported with the state
- moneys are enhancement of well location database; risk reduction of liability for the
county; publication of the Whatoom County Public Health Report; and maintenance
and support for client tracking and billing software.
Again, this is 100% state money and does not include any additional
appropriation of county funds. It is my hope that this carryover revenue and
increased 1999 expenditure authority will be included in the February Supplemental
Budget request to County Council.
Please contact me for any additional information. Thank you for your time

RE: Supplemental Budget
DATE: March 5, 1999
Enclosed are two Supplemental Budget Requests for the Health and Human
Services Department. I am asking that they be forwarded to County Council for
consideration at their April 6, 1999 meeting.
Health and Human Services Department (FIBS) has received grant funding and
additional expenditure authority is needed. The budget modification forms include
$53,383 for the Human-Services Division and $60,000 for Environmental Health On-
Site Septic Program.
Human Services: The Bellingham Housing Authority received Federal grant
monies to address substance abuse issues in housing developments. HHS is one of four
agencies to receive funding for this project. The $53,383 represents 10 months of
funding for 1999. The second year of grant funding will be included in next year's
budget. The revenue will fund a half -time Outreach Worker, treatment services,
transportation, and childcare. The Outreach Worker will be hired through a professional
service agreement. These Federal grant dollars do not allow us to charge administrative
cost allocation.
Environmental : The State Department of Ecology has approved our
application to provide loan funding for residents to repair failing on -site septic systems
(OSS). The supplemental budget request for the remainder of 1999 is for $60,000. The
total loan amount will be $300,000 at 0% interest for five (5) years. The $60,000 -
amount is an estimate of monies to be loaned to residents this year. Expenditure
authority for the remaining loan funds will be included in subsequent annual budgets.
Administration of the loan program will be through a local lending institution. The
homeowner will pay for program administrative costs through a fee charged by the
lending institution. There will be no cost to the county for program administration.
The contract agreements associated with this request will be submitted to the
County Executive office no later than March 26, 1999 so that they can be submitted to
Council on April 6 along with the supplemental budget request. Please contact me at
Ext 50801 if you have any questions regarding the request.

PURPOSE OF SUPPLEMENTAL:
Dispute Resolution Services: This supplemental is to increase the expenditure side of dispute
resolution services revenue collections where the revenues are to be wholly and exclusively used for
those services. The revenues are filing fee surcharges on certain of the District Court filing fees. The
contract is within the Superior Court budget. The original appropriation was $36,000 and should have
been $40,000, understated by $4,000. Annual revenues in the source revenue account have exceeded
$41,000 for a number of years.
Furnishings: Additionally, this supplemental is to provide modular furniture and partitions to split a
large workstation into smaller ones, in order to accommodate new staff added as a part of the 1999
budget. Those furnishings /remodel costs were inadvertently overlooked in the original budget request.
Estimates of costs were obtained from the two sources of providers able to install furnishings and
partitions compatible with already- installed modular furnishings. This request is for the lower of the
two bids. The higher bid was for approximately $8,000.

1. Dispute Resolution Services Budget Error
1. Modular Furniture
Dispute Resolution Services Budget Error: On March 2' we forwarded the 1999 dispute
resolution services contract for Council approval. In that process we discovered two errors. The
first error was that new money appropriated in 1999 was in the wrong line item for the contract.
That error has been corrected with a transfer. The second error was that our original request was
understated by $4,000. This supplemental is to correct that error. Our narrative indicated raising
the appropriation of dedicated revenue to its historically elevated amount of $40,000, instead of
the old estimated revenue of $36,000. The below copy of the budget narrative reports our 1999
intention to raise the amount, but we failed to enter the change in the numerical request column.
Wholly funded from dedicated revenues collected by District
Court; paid to Whatcom Dispute Resolution Center under
annual contract; limited to actual revenues collected
(adjusted in December of each year). For 1997 and 1998,
actual collections will exceed $41,000. The contract amount
for 1999 is therefore adjusted upward to reflect safely
predicted revenues and is set at $40,000.
Every year for the past three years the actual revenues collected have exceeded $41,000. The
1999 contract contemplates a minimum of $40,000 from those revenues and the budget must be
supplemented to reflect that amount This is not a draw -down on the general fund ending fund
balance but is merely the expenditure side of already- dedicated revenue.
Modular Furniture: This supplemental request is also to provide modular furniture and
partitions to split a large workstation into smaller ones, in order to accommodate new staff added
as a part of the 1999 budget. Those furnishings /remodel costs were inadvertently overlooked in
the original budget request. Estimates of costs were obtained from the two sources of providers
able to install furnishings and partitions compatible with already - installed modular furnishings.
This request is for the lower of the two bids (Bellingham's TRICO Office Supplies). The higher
bid was for approximately $8,000.

COUNTY EXECUTIVE
In April of 1998, your office authorized the application for a U.S. Department of Justice Drug
Court Planning Grant. The planning grant was awarded in September of 1998 and formally
accepted in December of 1998. We now need to establish a budget for the conduct of the
business associated with that planning effort.
Attached a supplemental budget request establishing the expenditure account for the grant. The
majority of the planning expense is for the local team members to attend mandated planning
workshops. It is possible that there will be other minor planning expenses, all covered by the grant.
The planning effort is already underway. Judge Moynihan and I attended a preliminary planning
workshop in Los Angeles a number of weeks ago. The entire local drug court team, comprised
of the Prosecuting Attorney, the Public Defender, a representative of the drug treatment
community and I are attending an intensive workshop in Louisiana in a few weeks. We will be
working with Snohomish and Yakima county teams to craft our local drug court procedures. This
grant covers 100% of those travel and planning costs.
Please forward the supplemental budget request to the County Council.
Please contact any team member or me if you have questions in these regards.

offender cases. Whatcom County applied for the grant specifying that it would dedicate an additional
0.38 FTE judicial officer to the prosecution of those kinds of cases. This supplemental is to appropriate
the expenditure side of that grant revenue, to expand the court's 0.62 FTE "Becca" Court Commissioner
to 1.0 FTE, i.e., full time, enabling that commissioner to hear offender matters. The additional salary
appropriation in the Clerk's cost center is to supplement the "Becca" deputy clerk's funding for non-
Becca matters, i.e., the offender matters.

SUBJECT: Juvenile Rehabilitation Administration (DSHS) Grant —
Full Time Commissioner
Congress in 1997 appropriated funds for a Juvenile Accountability Incentive Block Grant
(JA03G) program. In Washington the Juvenile Rehabilitation Administration and the
Department of Social and Health Services administer those funds. Whatcom County's share of
the Washington funds is $39,645. The Criminal Justice Working Group and the administration
conferred and considered the best use of those local funds. An application was submitted which
would expand the 0.62 FTE `Becca" Court Commissioner to full time, and modestly supplement
the attendant'Becea" Deputy Clerk salary to enable the incumbent to sit with the Commissioner
to hear non -Becca matters.
Per the attached letter, we are notified that the grant is awarded and that activity pursuant to the
grant may commence as of March 1, 1999. The Commissioner's workload was expanded to full
time effective 3/1/1999 and he has been hearingjuvenile offender and dependency matters on the
expanded calendars authorized under the grant.
Attached is a supplemental budget requesting the appropriation of the grant funds.

MEMORANDUM
TO: The Honorable Pete Kremen, County Executive, and -
Honorable Members of the Whatccoom County Council
FROM: Jeffrey M. Monsen, Director \ A \
RE: April Supplemental Budget Request — Water Resource Plan
DATE: March 15, 1999
Phone: (360)676 -6692
County: (360)398 -1310
FAX: (360) 738 -4561
Attached for your review and Council consideration are three supplemental budget
requests. These requests implement items as outlined in the Water Resources Plan
including Watershed Planning/2514 and Salmon Recovery/ESA.
Watershed Planning / ESHB 2514:
On Much 11, 1999, the Initiating Governments approved the proposed $855,000
budget for 1999 efforts. Their approval included the understanding that minor
adjustments may need to occur between labor, professional services, and
intergovernmental categories as specific actions and their alternatives are
considered.
The attached 2514 Watershed Planning April Supplemental Budget Outline
includes section references to a proposed long -term plan. The draft long -term
program / budget narrative will be delivered under separate cover for your
information prior to the supplemental budget hearing. The long -term program /
budget narrative will provide an expanded explanation for the requested 1999
expenditures within the context of this multi -year effort.
The Initiating Governments also request that the County Executive be given
additional discretionary authority for budgetary expenditures when unanimously
requested and approved by the Initiating Governments ($100,000 miscellaneous
budget category and up to $50,000 professional services contract authority). The
purpose of this discretionary authority is to ensure that every effort is made to
move this process along as quickly as possible. The additional Executive
discretion requested only applies to the 2514 joint planning process and not the
other County Water Resource Plan elements.
Memo to County Executive / Council
March 15, 1999
Page 2
Salmon Recovery / ESA:
We are still awaiting word from the State as to approval of submitted projects
for utilization of the $1,400,000 federal funds set aside for WRIA #1 (the project
descriptions are contained.within the Water Resource Plan). A substantial portion
of these funds will be "passed through" by the County or granted directly to other
local entities. The requested $564,840 (including $250,000 federal funds) is an
estimated amount that will be expended directly by the county. As the State
finalizes guidance for use of these funds, budgetary adjustments may need to
occur.
This supplemental budget request includes the hiring of an ESA Coordinator.
This position, together with the Water Resources Manager, will provide a
substantially expanded coordination effort with the community, local
governmental entities, and other counties, cities, state and federal entities.
The third element of this supplemental budget request relates to the Flood Control Zone
District Fund since it is the local source of funding for this supplemental budget request.
For your information following is a summary of the 1999 financial resources dedicated to
all elements of the Water Resource Plan:
Total available revenue for 1999 efforts:
$ 250,000 State Grant
250,000 Federal Grants (projected)
250,000 Unused 1998 Budget Authority (Flood Control Zone District)
1.700.000 1999 Flood Control Zone District Budget Authority
$ 2,450,000 Total
To date 1999 directed resources:
$ 617,887 February Supplemental Budget (approved)
1.419.840 April Supplemental Budget (requested)
$ 417,273 Remaining 1999 Balance
Appropriate staff will be available to answer your questions as you deliberate this matter.
