DATE: June 20, 2017
TO: Board of Supervisors
SUBMITTED BY: Margaret Mims, Sheriff-Coroner
SUBJECT: Salary Resolution Amendments
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):
TITLE
1. Approve Amendment to the Salary Resolution adding 42 Correctional Officer positions to the Sheriff-Coroner Org 3111, effective July 3, 2017, as reflected in Appendix C; and
2. Approve Amendment to the Salary Resolution adding two Deputy Sheriff positions and two Community Service Officer positions to the Sheriff-Coroner Org 3111, effective July 3, 2017, as reflected in Appendix C.

There are no viable alternative actions. If the recommended actions are not approved, the Salary resolutions would remain unchanged and the County of Fresno would not be in compliance with the Quentin Hall v County of Fresno settlement and the California Government Code section 69926(b) requiring court security services.
