Enid Mendoza, CCP staff, presented the FY 2025/26 AB 109 Public Safety Realignment,

Local Community Corrections budget proposals, which included a discussion

surrounding the Community Corrections Base and Growth revenue estimates. The most

notable State revenue impacts being the FY 2023/24 closeout resulting in shortfalls that

will impact current year allocations and likely next year's allocations.

The CCP Budget Development schedule was shared and an agreement was reached by

the CCP - Executive Committee members to meet in the early afternoon of December 20,

2024 for the next meeting to vote on the FY 2025/26 budget. Ms. Mendoza then

proceeded to share the FY 2025/26 AB 109 Community Corrections budget proposal

summary, with an overview of all department proposals and highlighting the change

from prior year.

The Committee inquired of any potential funding impacts due to the recent election

outcomes, such as Proposition 36 and various members contributed that impacts were

possible, and will be identified with time.

Timothy Ewell reminded the Committee about the one-time reserve funding of $15

million that was recently recommended by the CAB and approved by the Board for

allocation and the necessity of including a review component. In response, the Chair and

Patrice Guillory shared that the Office of Reentry and Justice has a candidate for

program management in the works and the Probation Department is looking forward to

filling the position since it will be a support to ORJ program evaluations.

The next meeting date is not scheduled, and will be in December.
