Motion: Failed for lack of a second. Public Comment: A public comment was received from LeVonne Stone. Board Comments: Berkley Brannon presented a list of Proposition 47 cases that are pending record expungement, and indicated that more than half of the cases had already been processed; consequently, he was not in support of allocating funding for the positions requested by the PD. Chief Parsons indicated that she was not in support of PD Egar s request due to: 1) AB 109 projected budget deficit; 2) The County facing a challenging budget next FY; and 3) Population served, not all being AB 109 offenders. The Public Defender receives a separate funding allocation from the State for AB 109 activities. E. Discuss funding options for inmate programs at County Jail 2
