CONSIDERATION OF APPROVAL OF INCREASE IN BEGINNING NETWORKING CAPITAL IN SHERIFF'S BUDGET Before the Board was consideration of approval of an increase in beginning networking capital in the Sheriff's budget. Sheriff Greg Brown requested the Board to make a decision to allow the Sheriff's office to continue for a while. He felt this was doing the right thing for the citizens of Deschutes County. Sheriff Brown reported that his office had put aside some spending and they had not filled 22 vacancies. The savings from these conditions appears to be additional funds in the amount of $225,000. When the Sheriff's office was at full staff and everything fully operational, they spend approximately $30,000 a day. Sheriff Brown proposed taking the $225,000 and using additional funding of $150,000 to bring back the laid -off employees. Sheriff Brown stated he would work with the Finance Department to determine what the dollar amount would need to be paid. He recommended they take the $40,000 the City was willing to step forward with and only go back to the City if necessary. SWEARINGEN: MINUTES 1 I would move that we approve the additional beginning cash to be directed as proposed by the Sheriff.
