Annual Report 2003-2004 PROBATION DEPARTMENT Larry R. Price Chief Probation Officer September 30, 2004 The People of Fresno County The Honorable Brad R. Hill, Presiding Judge, California Superior Court, Fresno County The Honorable Denise Whitehead, Presiding Judge, Juvenile Delinquency Court Supervisor Susan B. Anderson, Chair, Fresno County Board of Supervisors Bart Bohn, County Administrative Officer Ruby Hefley, Chair, Juvenile Justice Commission We submit the Fresno County Probation Department's Annual Report for the Fiscal Year ending June 30, 2004. The contents of the Annual Report cover all operational components of the Department. The budget is complex, dependent on federal, state, county, and some city money. The agency currently operates on approximately 59% of General Fund money from the tax base of Fresno County government. This is up from only 42% of General Fund money five years ago. With the demand for more capacity to incarcerate youth, our institutions budgets are going up while probation budgets are going down. The management infrastructure of the department is very lean and needs a reexamination soon. The ability to supervise adult offenders in the community is not keeping up with the growth while the institutions are well staffed. A 480-bed Juvenile Justice Campus is under construction, on time and on budget, with an opening scheduled in the spring of 2006. Our Continuum of Sanctions includes prevention, intervention, community based supervision of offenders, and incarceration with treatment. We will not forget the importance of service to victims and we will continue to look for innovative concepts that will make the system better and more cost effective. A component that needs priority is restorative justice. When Fiscal Year 03-04 ended, permanent positions in the Department were at 547 employees. This number is augmented, at any time, with over 100 extra help per diem employees. The Department's current budget is about $51 million dollars. Each year when we submit our budget proposal to the County Administrative Office we include an overview of the number of positions that we feel we need to serve this growing county. Last year our budget submittal letter identified 204 new positions, many of which were for the supervision of adult felons on probation in our community. Many positive highlights could be listed for our department this past year but there are so many positive things going on it is best to refer the reader to the contents of this Annual Report. PROTECTION PREVENTION INTERVENTION 1100 Van Ness/Fresno, California 93721/(559)488-3640/FAX(559)262-4327 Equal Employment Opportunity - Affirmative Action - Handicap Employer The Probation Department is very diverse in its service delivery to the Criminal Justice System. We cross all lines of programming and disciplines in the justice system. We are viewed as a valued public safety agency in this community thanks to the hard-working dedicated men and women who staff the Fresno County Probation Department. Their loyalty and commitment to this agency deserves exceptional commendations. Larry R. Price Chief Probation Officer LRP:sf *Special thanks to Shelly Riddle, Judy Talent, Nancy Tarlton, Irma Campos, and Dolly Quan for the excellence of this Annual Report.

The nature and intensity of their growing pains, however, remain unclear. Interstate 5 and Highway 99 are already jammed with traffic, and the state’s continued budget crisis makes new construction problematic.
