Section § 30025

Explanation

This law establishes the Local Revenue Fund 2011 to manage and allocate state revenues for public safety and social services programs. Various accounts within the fund support functions like law enforcement, mental health, and child welfare. Certain accounts were repurposed or abolished in 2012, and new subaccounts were created for improved fund distribution.

Counties are required to create corresponding local versions of these accounts to manage their funds, and they have limited discretion to reallocate or reassign funds to maximize their impact. The funds are continuously appropriated for 'Public Safety Services,' which includes employing public safety officials, managing jails, and providing mental health and substance abuse services.

Furthermore, this statute requires documentation and accountability, with counties reporting how funds are allocated and used. The statute also ensures that these funds are recognized as state funds for federal Medicaid matching purposes, but they are not General Fund revenues.

Section § 30026

Explanation

This law establishes the Community Corrections Grant Program as of October 1, 2011, to support changes in the criminal justice system required by previous legislation. The program provides financial grants to counties impacted by those changes.

The funds for these grants come from specific local accounts related to community corrections and law enforcement services. The allocation of these funds is intended to be consistent with the detailed provisions and appropriations outlined in earlier statutes.

(a)CA Government Code § 30026(a) Consistent with Section 636 of Chapter 15 of the Statutes of 2011, as of October 1, 2011, there is hereby established the Community Corrections Grant Program for the purpose of funding various changes to the criminal justice system as required by Chapter 15 of the Statutes of 2011. The grant program shall provide grants to all counties that are affected by the provisions of Chapter 15 of the Statutes of 2011.
(b)CA Government Code § 30026(b) The moneys in the Local Community Corrections Account within the Local Revenue Fund 2011, and the moneys in its successor subaccount or special account, the moneys in the Community Corrections Subaccount within the Law Enforcement Services Account within the Local Revenue Fund 2011, and the moneys in the Community Corrections Growth Special Account within the Law Enforcement Services Growth Subaccount shall be used to fund the grant program as established in subdivision (a), and the appropriation out of that account on October 1, 2011, shall constitute an appropriation to fund the Community Corrections Grant Program, consistent with the provisions of Chapter 15 of the Statutes of 2011, and as identified in Section 636 of Chapter 15 of the Statutes of 2011.

Section § 30026.5

Explanation

This section outlines the 2011 Realignment Legislation, which shifts certain public safety responsibilities from the state to local agencies, giving them flexibility in administering these services while adhering to federal law. The legislation specifies that new programs after 2012 are limited, requiring the state to fund any increased service levels or new mandates unless they voluntary exceed the mandate. It establishes funding sources through specific subaccounts and ensures no extra state funding unless those sources lack funds. If state actions increase local costs, the state must provide additional funds. Special emphasis is on maintaining federal funding eligibility while ensuring allocations do not replace existing public safety service funding.

Decisions to reduce behavioral health or protective services funding must be made openly by county boards. It clarifies that realignment doesn't restrict rights or access under federal programs. Detailed monthly and annual funding data must be posted online by the Controller.

(a)CA Government Code § 30026.5(a) “2011 Realignment Legislation” means legislation enacted on or before September 30, 2012, to implement the state budget plan, that is entitled 2011 Realignment and provides for the assignment to local agencies of responsibilities for Public Safety Services, including related reporting responsibilities. The 2011 Realignment Legislation shall provide local agencies with maximum flexibility and control over the design, administration, and delivery of those services consistent with federal law and funding requirements, as determined by the Legislature. However, the 2011 Realignment Legislation shall include no new programs assigned to local agencies after January 1, 2012, except for the Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnosis, and Treatment (EPSDT) program and mental health managed care, which may also be referred to as specialty mental health care services.
(b)CA Government Code § 30026.5(b) Any mandate of a new program or higher level of service on a local agency imposed by the 2011 Realignment Legislation, or by any regulation adopted or any executive order or administrative directive issued to implement that legislation, shall, if it constitutes a mandate requiring the state to provide a subvention of funds within the meaning of the California Constitution, be paid from the moneys provided for that activity.

(2)CA Government Code § 30026.5(b)(2) A reimbursable mandate for any program or service that may be funded from any of the subaccounts in the Law Enforcement Services Account or funding received from the Law Enforcement Services Growth Subaccount shall be paid from the applicable subaccount, and no other funding shall be required unless the total amount received into the subaccount of any county or city and county is insufficient to provide funding for that mandate.

Section § 30027.5

Explanation

This section outlines how California allocated funds from the Local Revenue Fund in the 2012-13 fiscal year. For example, by the 18th of each month, a fixed amount is allocated to the Mental Health Account. Additionally, funds collected under specific tax codes are directed to law enforcement activities and, once a cap is reached, excess funds are moved to a special account for growth. If necessary funds are insufficient for law enforcement, the Controller adjusts allocations according to estimated needs. Moreover, leftover funds after initial allocations are placed in the Sales and Use Tax Growth Account.

Funds allocated to law enforcement are distributed monthly to several specific subaccounts, such as trial court security and community corrections. Meanwhile, support services funds, also distributed monthly, go towards behavioral health services and protective services like foster care. The allocations follow a specific percentage or monetary cap for each area or subaccount.

This section shall apply to the allocations made from the Local Revenue Fund 2011 for the 2012–13 fiscal year, which shall include cash received beginning on August 16, 2012.
(a)CA Government Code § 30027.5(a) On or before the 18th of each month, the Controller shall allocate to the Mental Health Account of the Local Revenue Fund 2011, ninety-three million three hundred seventy-nine thousand two hundred fifty-two dollars ($93,379,252) of the revenue received into the Local Revenue Fund 2011, pursuant to Sections 6051.15 and 6201.15 of the Revenue and Taxation Code.
(b)CA Government Code § 30027.5(b) All funds obtained pursuant to Sections 11001.5 and 11005 of the Revenue and Taxation Code shall be deposited in the Enhancing Law Enforcement Activities Subaccount in the Law Enforcement Services Account.

(1)CA Government Code § 30027.5(d)(1) The amount necessary to provide four hundred eighty-nine million nine hundred thousand dollars ($489,900,000) to the Enhancing Law Enforcement Activities Subaccount for the fiscal year, based on the estimate provided by the Department of Finance, shall be allocated to the subaccount. If it is subsequently determined that the actual funds received in the subaccount exceed that amount for the fiscal year, the Controller shall refund the excess sales tax amount to the Local Revenue Fund 2011.

Section § 30027.6

Explanation

This section outlines how funds from the Local Revenue Fund 2011 were to be allocated for the 2013-14 fiscal year. Beginning August 16, 2013, the Controller must distribute funds monthly to various accounts, including the Mental Health Account and the Law Enforcement Services Account, based on certain percentages and amounts specified from previous fiscal years.

These allocations follow a precise schedule until replaced by the Department of Finance's revised plan. There are specific provisions for ensuring the Enhancing Law Enforcement Activities Subaccount receives a required amount, with adjustments made if initial estimates fall short.

Funds are also directed proportionally to accounts related to trial court security, community corrections, district attorneys, juvenile justice, behavioral health, protective services, and women's and children's residential treatment.

This section shall apply to allocations made from the Local Revenue Fund 2011 for the 2013–14 fiscal year, which shall include cash received beginning on August 16, 2013. Until the Department of Finance has prepared a schedule pursuant to subdivision (g), the Controller shall allocate funding as provided in subdivisions (a) to (f), inclusive.

Section § 30027.7

Explanation

This law outlines how funds from the Local Revenue Fund 2011 should be allocated during the 2014-15 fiscal year. It specifies monthly allocations to various accounts up to certain dollar amounts. For mental health, $93.4 million goes monthly to the Mental Health Account. Funds are also allocated to enhance law enforcement if certain revenue thresholds are met.

If those thresholds aren’t reached, the Controller must allocate remaining funds to ensure these targets are met. There are specific percentages allocated to Trial Court Security, Community Corrections, and Juvenile Justice from the Law Enforcement Services Account. For Support Services, funds are divided between Behavioral Health and Protective Services. The Director of Finance will update these allocation schedules when needed.

Section § 30027.8

Explanation

This law explains how funds from the Local Revenue Fund 2011 should be allocated each fiscal year starting from 2015-16. Every month, a specific amount of funds is to be allocated to the Mental Health Account. Additionally, funds are directed to law enforcement and support services depending on the amounts specified in various accounts, ensuring they match the previous year's levels.

If there is not enough money in the fund to meet these levels, the available funds are divided based on the proportions received in the previous year. A separate special allocation is made for Women's and Children's Residential Treatment Services.

The Department of Finance provides an annual schedule to manage fund distribution, which the Controller uses to adjust allocations accordingly.

This section shall apply to the allocations made from the Local Revenue Fund 2011 for the 2015–16 fiscal year, and each fiscal year thereafter, which shall include cash received beginning on August 16 of each fiscal year. Until the Department of Finance has prepared a schedule pursuant to subdivision (g), the Controller shall allocate funding as provided in subdivisions (a) to (f), inclusive.

Section § 30027.9

Explanation

This law details how funds from the Sales and Use Tax Growth Account are allocated among various subaccounts for specific fiscal years starting from 2012-13. Initially, 65% goes to the Support Services Growth Subaccount and 35% to the Law Enforcement Services Growth Subaccount. Over the years, it prioritizes ensuring full funding for the Support Services Account and Law Enforcement Services Account based on previous high levels of funding or maximum authorized amounts. If funds are insufficient, distribution follows the proportions received previously.

Starting from 2012-13, specific allocations from the Law Enforcement Services Growth Subaccount distribute percentages to several areas including trial court security, juvenile justice, and community corrections. Additionally, the Support Services Growth Subaccount allocates percentages towards mental health, protective services, and behavioral health. Adjustments occur annually, with specific priorities once $200 million has been allocated to the Protective Services Growth Special Account. Afterward, different allocation percentages become standard unless changed through authoritative certification.

Section § 30027.10

Explanation

This section explains what happens if a county in California is not properly managing or providing services for programs funded by the Behavioral Health Subaccount, which could risk losing federal Medicaid funds. When the State Department of Health Care Services identifies such a risk, they must notify specific state agencies and the county involved, providing details on the issue and necessary funding. Following this, the Controller reallocates the county's funds for the affected programs into a special subaccount, ensuring they are only used to address the issue. These funds remain in the subaccount until the Department allows them to be returned to usual allocation. Annually, the State Department must report to legislative committees about any activities related to this subaccount and share documentation with interested parties.

(a)CA Government Code § 30027.10(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this chapter, if the State Department of Health Care Services determines that a county is failing or is at risk of failing to perform the functions of, or to provide services for, a program or programs funded by the Behavioral Health Subaccount to such an extent that federal Medicaid funds are at risk, the State Department of Health Care Services shall then notify the Controller, the Department of Finance, and the county. This notification shall detail the county at issue, the program or programs involved, and the amounts needed from the subaccount to perform functions or provide services at the level required to fully obtain federal funds. Immediately upon notification, the Controller shall deposit the portion of the county’s allocation attributable to the affected program or programs, including from the Behavioral Health Services Growth Special Account, into the County Intervention Support Services Subaccount in the Support Services Account of the Local Revenue Fund 2011.
(b)CA Government Code § 30027.10(b) Deposits made to the County Intervention Support Services Subaccount may be accessed by the State Department of Health Care Services and shall be used for the county described in the notification and solely for the program or programs identified in the notification.
(c)CA Government Code § 30027.10(c) The county’s allocation attributable to the affected program or programs shall continue to be placed in the County Intervention Support Services Subaccount until the State Department of Health Care Services notifies the Controller that those deposits may cease.
(d)CA Government Code § 30027.10(d) The State Department of Health Care Services shall make an annual report to the fiscal committees of the Legislature regarding activity related to the County Intervention Support Services Subaccount and shall make copies of the documentation available to other interested parties upon request.

Section § 30027.11

Explanation

This law ensures that if certain taxes are reduced or stopped, the state of California must still provide the same or a larger amount of money to the Local Revenue Fund 2011. This money is essential for local agencies to continue providing public safety services.

The Director of Finance has 30 days to estimate how much money is needed based on the budget and tell the state how much to provide. If the state doesn't set aside the funds in the annual budget, the law requires the money to be taken from the General Fund and given in monthly portions. The Controller is responsible for distributing these funds to local agencies as outlined in the 2011 Realignment Legislation.

If the taxes described in subdivision (a) of Section 30025 are reduced or cease to be operative, the state shall annually provide moneys to the Local Revenue Fund 2011 in an amount equal to or greater than the aggregate amount that otherwise would have been provided by the taxes described in subdivision (a) of Section 30025. The Director of Finance shall estimate that amount within 30 days of the enactment of the statute or constitutional amendment that reduces or repeals the taxes, by consulting with the appropriate taxing entities and using the same methodologies used to prepare the revenue projections for the Governor’s Budget. Based on this estimate, the state shall be obligated to provide that amount for so long as the local agencies are required to perform the Public Safety Services. After an appropriation is made pursuant to law in accordance with the estimate prepared by the Director of Finance, the Controller shall disburse these amounts to local agencies in the manner directed by the 2011 Realignment Legislation. If the state fails to annually appropriate that amount, the Controller shall transfer that amount from the General Fund in pro rata monthly shares to the Local Revenue Fund 2011. Thereafter, the Controller shall disburse these amounts to local agencies in the manner directed by the 2011 Realignment Legislation.

Section § 30028

Explanation

This section details how funds from the Juvenile Justice Account, specifically for the fiscal year 2011-12, are to be distributed by the Controller. A little over 96% of these funds go to the Youthful Offender Block Grant Subaccount, and nearly 4% are allocated to the Juvenile Reentry Grant Subaccount. These allocations include cash received in July and up to mid-August 2012.

For fiscal year 2011–12, which includes cash received in July and up to August 15, 2012, funds allocated to the Juvenile Justice Account from the Local Revenue Fund 2011 pursuant to paragraph (4) of subdivision (c) of Section 30027 shall be allocated by the Controller as follows:
(a)CA Government Code § 30028(a) Ninety-six and fifteen hundredths of 1 percent to the Youthful Offender Block Grant Subaccount.
(b)CA Government Code § 30028(b) Three and eighty-five hundredths of 1 percent to the Juvenile Reentry Grant Subaccount.

Section § 30028.1

Explanation

This law section explains how funds from the Juvenile Justice Subaccount are distributed starting from the 2012-13 fiscal year. Of the funds, 94.481% go to the Youthful Offender Block Grant Special Account, and 5.519% go to the Juvenile Reentry Grant Special Account. The distribution is managed by the Controller.

Commencing with the 2012–13 fiscal year, funds allocated to the Juvenile Justice Subaccount from the Local Revenue Fund 2011 pursuant to paragraph (4) of subdivision (e) of Section 30027.5, paragraph (4) of subdivision (e) of Section 30027.6, paragraph (4) of subdivision (e) of Section 30027.7, and paragraph (4) of subdivision (e) of Section 30027.8 shall be allocated by the Controller as follows:
(a)CA Government Code § 30028.1(a) To the Youthful Offender Block Grant Special Account: 94.481 percent.
(b)CA Government Code § 30028.1(b) To the Juvenile Reentry Grant Special Account: 5.519 percent.

Section § 30029.1

Explanation

This law section explains how money from the Juvenile Justice Account is to be allocated for the 2011-12 fiscal year, aiming to distribute funds as if the law that introduced this section had not been enacted. Two types of grants are involved: the Youthful Offender Block Grant and the Juvenile Reentry Grant.

The Director of Finance is responsible for determining how much each county gets from these grants. They must report the amounts to the Controller, who will then allocate the funds accordingly. Each grant has specific rules about its use, ensuring the money is spent on intended purposes for juvenile justice programs in each county or city and county.

The moneys allocated out of the subaccounts of the Juvenile Justice Account for the 2011–12 fiscal year are intended to be allocated in the same manner as the funding for those programs would have been allocated in the 2011–12 fiscal year if not for the passage of the act adding this section. For the 2011–12 fiscal year, moneys in the subaccounts in the Juvenile Justice Account in the Local Revenue Fund 2011 shall be allocated as follows:
(a)CA Government Code § 30029.1(a) The Director of Finance shall determine the total amount of the Youthful Offender Block Grant and the allocation for each county, pursuant to Sections 1955 and 1956 of the Welfare and Institutions Code, and shall report those findings to the Controller. The Controller shall make an allocation from the Youthful Offender Block Grant Subaccount in the Juvenile Justice Account to each county’s or city and county’s Juvenile Justice Account in accordance with the report. The moneys allocated pursuant to this subdivision shall be used solely for the purposes described in subparagraph (A) of paragraph (6) of subdivision (f) of Section 30025.
(b)CA Government Code § 30029.1(b) The Director of Finance shall calculate the Juvenile Reentry Grant and the allocation for each county probation department, consistent with the goals and criteria set forth in Section 1984 of the Welfare and Institutions Code, except that the allocations shall be distributed monthly, and shall report those findings to the Controller. The Controller shall make an allocation from the Juvenile Reentry Grant Subaccount to each county’s or each city and county’s Juvenile Justice Account in accordance with the report. The moneys allocated pursuant to this subdivision shall be used solely for the purposes described in subparagraph (B) of paragraph (6) of subdivision (f) of Section 30025.

Section § 30029.4

Explanation

This section involves the redirection of savings specifically from the shift of financial responsibility for certain youth services from the Department of Social Services to the Department of Education. Counties that saved money due to this change must use that savings to enhance foster care, child welfare services, or adoptions programs. However, they cannot be forced to redirect more money than they saved. The intent is for counties to face no new costs.

Each county's savings will be calculated based on past spending on residential placement for emotionally disturbed youth. This section also clarifies that counties are not forced to continue any previous voluntary overspending on child welfare beyond required amounts.

(a)CA Government Code § 30029.4(a) The following terms have the following meanings for purposes of implementing this section:
(1)CA Government Code § 30029.4(a)(1) “Adoptions” includes adoption services provided to children and families pursuant to Section 16100 of the Welfare and Institutions Code or which a county enters into an agreement with another entity to provide on the county’s behalf.
(2)CA Government Code § 30029.4(a)(2) “Child welfare services” includes those services provided to children and families pursuant to Chapter 5 (commencing with Section 16500) of the Welfare and Institutions Code.
(3)CA Government Code § 30029.4(a)(3) “Foster care” includes expenditures for out-of-home placements for children pursuant to Article 5 (commencing with Section 11400), and Kinship Guardianship Assistance Payments provided pursuant to Article 4.5 (commencing with Section 11360) or Article 4.7 (commencing with Section 11385) of, Chapter 2 of Part 3 of Division 9 of the Welfare and Institutions Code.
(b)CA Government Code § 30029.4(b) Savings achieved by counties as a result of the shift of residential placement costs for seriously emotionally disturbed youth from the State Department of Social Services to the State Department of Education pursuant to Chapter 43 of the Statutes of 2011 shall be redirected to supplement foster care, child welfare services, or adoptions program expenditures. These savings amounts, as defined in subdivision (c), shall not supplant other foster care, child welfare services, or adoptions program expenditures for the 2011–12 fiscal year and each fiscal year thereafter. No county shall be required to redirect funding to foster care, child welfare services, or adoptions programs, or any combination of those programs or services, in an amount greater than the amount of the offsetting savings the county achieved as a result of the shift of residential placement costs. It is the intent of the Legislature that the requirements of this section shall result in no net costs to any county.
(c)CA Government Code § 30029.4(c) The amount of savings that each county is responsible for maintaining within the foster care, child welfare services, or adoptions programs as defined in subdivision (a) will be calculated by the State Department of Social Services, in conjunction with the Department of Finance and the County Welfare Directors Association, using the average total annual amount each county spent on the county share of residential placement costs for seriously emotionally disturbed youth pursuant to Assembly Bill 3632 (Chapter 1747 of the Statutes of 1984) in the 2007–08, 2008–09, and 2009–10 fiscal years.
(d)CA Government Code § 30029.4(d) This act is not intended to limit or restrict savings realized by counties from other caseload decreases or other decreases in costs for the foster care, child welfare services, or adoptions programs.
(e)CA Government Code § 30029.4(e) This section shall not be construed to create an obligation for any county that previously opted to spend greater than the amount necessary to fully match its base allocation of General Fund moneys for child welfare services and adoptions in a given fiscal year to continue such an overmatch.

Section § 30029.05

Explanation

This law outlines how the California Controller must distribute funds each year to various local government accounts for different purposes. The fiscal year runs from August 16 to the following August 15. Each month, certain funds are allocated to different accounts aimed at supporting mental health, trial court security, community corrections, district attorneys, public defenders, and law enforcement activities.

Key allocations include: funds for mental health are moved to a subaccount specifically for that purpose; trial court security funds are distributed monthly to ensure trial courts' security; and community corrections funds are given to support local corrections programs. Additionally, funds are also allocated to enhance local law enforcement and are divided according to various sections of the Welfare and Penal Codes, ensuring each county receives a specific percentage.

For purposes of this section, each fiscal year shall include cash received on August 16 to August 15, inclusive, of the following year. For the 2012–13 fiscal year, and for each fiscal year thereafter, the Controller shall allocate funds from the accounts in the Local Revenue Fund 2011 as follows:

Section § 30029.5

Explanation

This section describes how funds are allocated to county Protective Services Subaccounts from the Local Revenue Fund for social services. In the 2012-13 fiscal year, the allocation is based on a schedule developed by the Department of Finance with input from relevant social services and county associations. Counties receive payments in monthly installments as per their previous year's allocations, adjusted for updated program costs.

From the 2013-14 fiscal year onwards, allocations are made similarly, ensuring each county gets as much as they did the prior year, unless there are insufficient funds. If there's less money, counties share proportionally based on past receipts. Any extra funds beyond the necessary amounts are also distributed according to a set schedule.

(a)CA Government Code § 30029.5(a) For 2012–13, the moneys allocated to the Protective Services Subaccount of the Support Services Account of the Local Revenue Fund 2011 shall be allocated in monthly installments by the Controller to the county Protective Services Subaccount of the county Support Services Account of the County Local Revenue Fund 2011 pursuant to a schedule developed by the Department of Finance in consultation with the State Department of Social Services and the California State Association of Counties in accordance with the following:

(B)CA Government Code § 30029.5(a)(1)(A)(B) Once the amount specified in subparagraph (A) is available for allocation to the designated county’s or city and county’s Contract Special Account which shall be created in that county’s or city and county’s County Protective Services Subaccount, no additional money shall be allocated pursuant to this paragraph.
(2)CA Government Code § 30029.5(a)(2) The percentage distribution to each county shall be the same as those used to distribute funds in the 2011–12 fiscal year adjusted to reflect updated expenditures on Foster Care Assistance and Adoption Assistance Program payments as appropriate and for distribution of estimated funding for implementation of extended foster care services pursuant to Chapter 559 of the Statutes of 2010.
(b)CA Government Code § 30029.5(b) For the 2013–14 fiscal year and each fiscal year thereafter, the moneys allocated to the Protective Services Subaccount of the Support Services Account of the Local Revenue Fund 2011 shall be allocated in monthly installments by the Controller to the Protective Services Subaccount of the Support Services Account of the County Local Revenue Fund 2011 pursuant to schedules developed by the Department of Finance in consultation with the State Department of Social Services and the California State Association of Counties and in accordance with the following:

(2)CA Government Code § 30029.5(b)(2) If there are insufficient funds in the Protective Services Subaccount to comply with paragraph (1), then the moneys shall be allocated in a proportional basis to each county based on the relative amounts of funding that each county received during the immediately preceding fiscal year from the Protective Services Subaccount and the Protective Services Growth Special Account. Funding pursuant to subparagraph (A) of paragraph (1) of subdivision (a) shall be reduced by a percentage that equals the overall percent reduction in moneys incurred by the 58 counties pursuant to this paragraph.
(3)CA Government Code § 30029.5(b)(3) In addition to amounts received pursuant to paragraphs (1), (2), and (4), the schedules shall provide a proportional share of funds to the county or city and county designated in Section 30029.8, up to the amount specified in subparagraph (A) of paragraph (1) of subdivision (a).
(4)CA Government Code § 30029.5(b)(4) If there are funds in the Protective Services Subaccount in excess of those necessary to comply with paragraph (1), any additional funds shall be allocated pursuant to the schedule specified in subdivision (b).

Section § 30029.07

Explanation

This law section outlines how certain tax revenue growth accounts are distributed to county subaccounts in California. Funds from the Support Services Growth Subaccount and Law Enforcement Services Growth Subaccount are allocated to various subaccounts catering to services like protective services, behavioral health, trial court security, and community corrections in each county. These allocations are based on specific percentages or schedules provided by the Department of Finance. Starting 2015, a portion of funds from several accounts must be transferred to a Local Innovation Subaccount.

Additionally, counties meeting certain expenditure requirements, except for small counties, are eligible for extra allocations, and specific percentages of funds are distributed to counties like Los Angeles and San Diego. For 2012–13 and 2013–14, community corrections funds are allocated with a focus on effectively implementing public safety realignment, considering factors like population and new correctional practices.

Section § 30029.7

Explanation

This law outlines that counties in California can directly work with the State Department of Health Care Services or the State Department of Social Services to manage certain programs. These include the Drug Medi-Cal Treatment Program, agency adoptions, and the resource family approval program, among others. Counties are allowed to fund these services through cooperation with other counties if they choose. Importantly, contracts made under this law do not need to follow the usual public contract bidding requirements. However, the state must be reimbursed for its costs in providing these services, and the reimbursement cannot exceed the funding already provided to counties for these programs.

(a)CA Government Code § 30029.7(a) Notwithstanding any other law and to the extent consistent with or required by federal law or court order, a county or counties may contract directly with, or otherwise request, the State Department of Health Care Services or the State Department of Social Services, as applicable, to provide or administer the following programs, services, or activities:
(1)CA Government Code § 30029.7(a)(1) The Drug Medi-Cal Treatment Program pursuant to Article 3.2 (commencing with Section 14124.20) of Chapter 7 of Part 3 of Division 9 of the Welfare and Institutions Code.
(2)CA Government Code § 30029.7(a)(2) Agency adoptions pursuant to Chapter 2 (commencing with Section 16100) of Part 4 of Division 9 of the Welfare and Institutions Code and Chapter 2 (commencing with Section 8700) of Part 2 of Division 13 of the Family Code. Notwithstanding any other law, a license issued pursuant to Chapter 3 (commencing with Section 1500) of Division 2 of the Health and Safety Code shall not be required of a county that provides agency adoption program services.
(3)CA Government Code § 30029.7(a)(3) The resource family approval program pursuant to Article 2 (commencing with Section 16519.5) of Chapter 5 of Part 4 of Division 9 of the Welfare and Institutions Code, or any portion thereof.
(b)CA Government Code § 30029.7(b) Nothing in paragraph (1) or (2) of subdivision (a) shall prevent a county from providing funding for any of the programs, services, or activities through a contract with another county, joint powers agreement, or county consortium.
(c)Copy CA Government Code § 30029.7(c)
(1)Copy CA Government Code § 30029.7(c)(1) Contracts awarded pursuant to paragraph (1) of subdivision (a) shall be exempt from the requirements of Chapter 1 (commencing with Section 10100) and Chapter 2 (commencing with Section 10290) of Part 2 of Division 2 of the Public Contract Code. Contracts with the State Department of Health Care Services shall include reimbursement to the state for the cost of providing the services or activities in paragraph (1) of subdivision (a), subject to the terms of the contract. Those reimbursement amounts shall not exceed the funding provided to counties for specified programs.
(2)CA Government Code § 30029.7(c)(2) Contracts awarded pursuant to paragraphs (2) and (3) of subdivision (a) shall be exempt from the requirements of Chapter 1 (commencing with Section 10100) and Chapter 2 (commencing with Section 10290) of Part 2 of Division 2 of the Public Contract Code. Contracts with, or other requests of, the State Department of Social Services shall include reimbursement to the state for the costs of providing the services or activities in paragraph (2) or (3) of subdivision (a).

Section § 30029.8

Explanation

This law allows counties in California to choose to contract directly with the State Department of Social Services for specific social services, such as adoption reimbursements and foster care. Counties must work with the State Department and can use a special account for funding, which keeps these funds separate from other local funds. If funding is insufficient in any year, the state may reduce the services provided. Once federal approval is received, certain funds will be shared among all counties. Unspent funds can be used in future years or redistributed to other counties. If a county decides not to participate anymore, another county may be chosen to take its place.

(a)CA Government Code § 30029.8(a) Notwithstanding any other law, a county or city and county may elect and, in consultation with the California State Association of Counties, be designated by the State Department of Social Services to contract directly with the State Department of Social Services for the following social services programs, functions, and services.
(1)CA Government Code § 30029.8(a)(1) The Private Agency Adoptions Reimbursement Program.
(2)CA Government Code § 30029.8(a)(2) The Chafee Post Secondary Education and Training Voucher Program.
(3)CA Government Code § 30029.8(a)(3) Health Care Oversight for Children in Foster Care.
(4)CA Government Code § 30029.8(a)(4) Training, technical assistance, and other contracts of statewide benefits.
(5)CA Government Code § 30029.8(a)(5) Other contracts that counties, in consultation with the State Department of Social Services, determine are in the best interests of counties and the state.
(b)CA Government Code § 30029.8(b) The designated county or city and county that receives an allocation funded pursuant to subparagraph (A) of paragraph (1) of subdivision (a) of Section 30029.5 and paragraph (3) of subdivision (b) of Section 30029.5 shall place the funds in a Contract Special Account, which shall be created by the county treasurer or other appropriate official, within the Protective Services Subaccount of the County Local Revenue Fund 2011. Notwithstanding any other law, this special account shall not be subject to the reallocation provisions of subparagraph (A) of paragraph (6) of subdivision (f) of Section 30025. The contracts described in subdivision (a) shall be funded only from the Contract Special Account.
(c)CA Government Code § 30029.8(c) The contract or contracts entered into pursuant to paragraph (1) of subdivision (a) shall contain a provision that if full funding is not provided pursuant to Section 30029.5 in any fiscal year, then the State Department of Social Services may, in its discretion, reduce the contracted activities to be performed.
(d)CA Government Code § 30029.8(d) Once the necessary federal approval to allow for appropriate claiming of federal Title XIX funds by county child welfare agencies has been secured pursuant to subdivision (f) of Section 16501.3 of the Welfare and Institutions Code, the funds provided in subdivision (a) of Section 30029.5 for the Health Care Oversight for Children in Foster Care shall be redistributed to all counties pursuant to an allocation schedule developed by the State Department of Finance in consultation with the State Department of Health Care Services and the California State Association of Counties.
(e)CA Government Code § 30029.8(e) Funds not expended from the Contract Special Account in any fiscal year shall be retained in the Contract Special Account for use in a subsequent fiscal year. Alternatively, after consultation with the California State Association of Counties and the State Department of Social Services, the designated county or city and county may redistribute those funds to all counties in the same proportion as funding is allocated pursuant to subdivision (a) of Section 30029.5, excluding the allocation to the Contract Special Account. Any redistributed funds shall be deposited in each county’s Protective Services Subaccount in the County Revenue Fund 2011, but this funding shall not be used in determining the amount of funding allocated to any county in a subsequent fiscal year.
(f)CA Government Code § 30029.8(f) If a county or city and county elects to cease to perform the duties described in subdivision (a), or if the Department of Finance removes the designation of the county, then the State Department of Social Services, in consultation with the California State Association of Counties, shall designate another county or counties or city and county that elects to perform the duties described in subdivision (a).

Section § 30029.11

Explanation

This law describes how funds for juvenile justice programs are allocated each fiscal year in California. The fiscal year runs from August 16 of one year to August 15 of the next. Money from special accounts in the Juvenile Justice Subaccount is distributed to counties in the same way it was in the 2012-13 fiscal year. The Director of Finance calculates how much each county gets from two specific grants: the Youthful Offender Block Grant and the Juvenile Reentry Grant.

The Controller then distributes these funds to each county's Juvenile Justice Subaccount as per the Director of Finance's report. Funds from the Youthful Offender Block Grant must be used as described in a specific part of Section 30025 of the code, and funds from the Juvenile Reentry Grant have a separate designated use also detailed in Section 30025.

For purposes of this section, each fiscal year shall include cash received on August 16 to August 15, inclusive, of the following year. The moneys allocated out of the special accounts of the Juvenile Justice Subaccount for the 2012–13 fiscal year and every subsequent fiscal year thereafter are intended to be allocated in the same manner as the funding for those programs would have been allocated in the 2012–13 fiscal year and every subsequent year if not for the enactment of Section 30029.1 and this section. The Controller shall allocate moneys in the subaccounts in the Juvenile Justice Subaccount in the Local Revenue Fund 2011 as follows:
(a)CA Government Code § 30029.11(a) The Director of Finance shall determine the total amount of the Youthful Offender Block Grant Special Account and the allocation for each county, pursuant to Sections 1955 and 1956 of the Welfare and Institutions Code, and shall report those findings annually to the Controller. The Controller shall make an allocation from the Youthful Offender Block Grant Special Account in the Juvenile Justice Subaccount to each county’s or city and county’s Juvenile Justice Subaccount in accordance with the report. The moneys allocated pursuant to this subdivision shall be used solely for the purposes described in subparagraph (A) of paragraph (13) of subdivision (f) of Section 30025.
(b)CA Government Code § 30029.11(b) The Director of Finance shall calculate the allocations for the Juvenile Reentry Grant Special Account and the allocation for each county probation department, consistent with the goals and criteria set forth in Section 1984 of the Welfare and Institutions Code, except that the allocations shall be distributed monthly, and shall report those findings to the Controller. The Controller shall make an allocation from the Juvenile Reentry Grant Special Account to each county’s or each city and county’s Juvenile Justice Subaccount in accordance with the report. The moneys allocated pursuant to this subdivision shall be used solely for the purposes described in subparagraph (B) of paragraph (13) of subdivision (f) of Section 30025.

Section § 30029.12

Explanation

This section ensures that any financial schedule created by the Department of Finance and sent to the Controller must also be sent to the correct legislative fiscal committees for review and oversight. This helps maintain transparency and coordination between financial and legislative bodies.

Any schedule developed by the Department of Finance pursuant to this chapter and transmitted to the Controller shall also be transmitted by the Department of Finance to the appropriate legislative fiscal committees.
