Other Changes
1. Trust Fund Adjustment: Reflects the reduction
of Trust Fund (S30) dollars and the deletion of
87.0 vacant budgeted positions partially offset by
the increase of Family Support Trust Fund (TQ2) dollars.
2. Labor Management Savings: Reflects the reversal
of the labor-management savings placeholder

Budget. Labor-management savings are being replaced
by changes in the County’s deferred compensation
program.
3. Unavoidable Costs: Reflects increases in employee
benefits and capital assets, fully offset by reductions in
services and supplies and other charges.
4. Countywide Cost Allocation Plan (A-87): Reflects
an increase in the billable A-87 countywide cost
allocation plan for FY 2011-12 and the deletion of
the FY 2010-11 adjustment in rent charges to comply
with Federal Office of Management and Budget
claiming guidelines.

Since FY 2006-07, employee benefits have increased by $7.1 million (13 percent), while the State’s Child Support administrative
cost allocation has remained flat. Although, the County has provided some relief to mitigate the shortfalls, CSSD has had to reduce
its workforce. In FY 2003-04, CSSD employed a workforce of 2,008.0 full-time equivalent (FTE); in FY 2010-11, the number dropped
to 1,796.0 FTE, a 12 percent reduction.
Also, as part of its continued effort to align expenditures with allocation, CSSD developed an attrition plan which began in
FY 2010-11. To mitigate the structural deficit shortfall for FY 2011-12, CSSD is eliminating 122.0 vacant budgeted positions. The
Department will achieve the attrition plan goal in FY 2012-13 by reducing an additional 183.0 positions, and it is not anticipated
that any layoffs of staff will occur.
