Request by the District Attorney for approval to extend the end date to February 11, 2022 for 22 funded intake positions with no additional budget requested.

end

 

Background and Discussion:

 

Extend the expiration date of 22 positions initially approved on the January 26, 2021 Commissioners Court Agenda, and then approved on 8/24/21 to be through 11/05/21 with no additional budget requested. The request now is to extend the positions for the positions to be extended through the end of the year while we continue to evaluate operational performance and needs.

 

Expected Impact:

 

This will further provide assistance to reduce the backlog of cases resulting from the employee workforce out sick with Covid-19 Delta variant and supply permanent FTEs for the 24 hours weekend shift.

 

 

 

Alternative Options:

 

Removal of funding and extension of options would cause the DA's office to revert to the use of overtime to staff Intake.
