FUND FUNCTION ACTIVITY
GENERAL FUND PUBLIC PROTECTION POLICE PROTECTION
backlogged sexual assault kits; $3.6 million for Summer Gang
Suppression activities; $33.5 million in services and supplies
and equipment purchases for the Los Angeles Regional
Interoperable Communications System (LA-RICS) project;
$2.6 million in Electronic Monitoring Program funds;
$18.2 million in Utility User Tax (UUT) funds for unincorporated
area patrol; $0.5 million to complete Phase I of the installation
of closed-circuit television (CCTV) at Men’s Central Jail (MCJ);
$9.1 million for the consolidation of the Office of Public Safety
(OPS) with the Department; and $37.5 million in 2009-10 fund
balance savings carried over to mitigate 2010-11 curtailments.
Also reflected is a decrease of $83.3 million for 1994 Pension
Obligation Bonds, retiree health, rent charges, changes in
deferred compensation plan costs, and a reduction in net
County cost due to anticipated increases in public safety sales
tax receipts and intergovernmental revenue for the LA-RICS
project. The retirement of the 1994 Pension Obligation Bonds
reflects both a reduction in funding and expense. This funding
is no longer required because this debt obligation has been
fully paid. Elimination of this funding and its equivalent
expense does not impact the Department’s operating budget.
