Sheriff Major Accomplishments

 Central Square Record Management System Implementation: After three years of planning and preparation, the Central Square Record Management System went live on March 16, 2021. The implementation of this new Computer Aided Dispatch/Records Management System (CAD/RMS) was a major undertaking that affected every member of our staff and every aspect of our daily operations. There were countless hours of training sessions and coordination with multiple county departments and outside agencies. The new system allows us to have one central database for all our jail management, civil processing, personnel records, and evidence systems. It integrates with our case reports, calls for service, the Blaine County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office, and Blaine County Emergency Communication systems. It also integrates with all law enforcement and fire agencies in the valley allowing efficient sharing of information. As we continue to fine-tune and customize the system to fit our needs, we believe this new technology will greatly improve our internal processes and customer service throughout our department.

Our Central Square Record Management System Accomplishment is aligned with the following Strategic Priorities:

 Plans and prepares for capital improvements and repairs to maintain and protect county facilities for the future  Promulgates appropriate inter-governmental cooperative action  Optimizes public accessibility to county services and information  Understands and focuses on customer and client service  Is unified in its sense of purpose  Promotes a collaborative team approach to issues and problem solving  Engages in excellent intra- and inter- departmental communication  Optimizes employee training and improvement opportunities  Strives for consistency  Is equipped, trained, and very well prepared to protect public safety and health

Blaine County Sheriff’s Office FY2022 Budget Overview Page 10

 Lifeloc Breathalyzer Grant: We obtained a grant from the Office of Drug Policy (ODP) for the purchase of Lifeloc breathalyzers for all of our patrol vehicles. Lifeloc is one of the most powerful and versatile Professional Breath Alcohol testing (PBT) units on the market. They are portable, easy to use, and accurate to a detection range of 0 to .600 BAC. Their auto testing sequence doesn’t allow a step to be skipped or missed, which creates less room for human error. They are cost-efficient; after the initial purchase, the units will only need dry gas for calibration and mouthpieces to operate. Having a PBT in each patrol vehicle allows for roadside breath samples. The individual can stay with their vehicle until the sample comes back, instead of possibly having their vehicle towed and taking the individual to the PSF for further testing. Conducting roadside breathalyzer testing creates a faster turnaround time on a DUI and allows the Deputy to return to their patrol duties more quickly. The ODP grant saved the county approximately $14,633 in capital expenditures.

Our Lifeloc Breathalyzer Grant Accomplishment is aligned with the following Strategic Priorities:

 Uses citizen and taxpayer resources efficiently and effectively  Takes the time to assess risk and incorporates risk management appropriately into its decision making  Recognizes the federal and state constitutional and statutory environment in which it operates  Optimizes public accessibility to county services and information  Understands and focuses on customer and client service  Works to meet community needs when determined appropriate and possible  Provides leadership reflecting the goals and values of the entire Blaine County community  Is unified in its sense of purpose  Strives for consistency  Sets clear employee performance and evaluation standards and upholds them  Is equipped, trained, and very well prepared to protect public safety and health

 Drug Recognition Expert (DRE) In April patrol deputy Matt Reichert attended a three-week training to become a Drug Recognition Expert to identify people whose driving is impaired by drugs other than, or in addition to, alcohol. Drugs other than alcohol (legal and illegal) are involved in about 16% of motor vehicle crashes and estimates show that almost 44 percent of drivers in fatal car crashes tested positive for drugs. In 2018, 20.5 million people aged 16 or older drove under the influence of alcohol in the past year and 12.6 million drove under the influence of illicit drugs. Use of illicit drugs or misuse of prescription drugs can make driving a car unsafe—just like driving after drinking alcohol. Driving under the influence of marijuana, opioids, and alcohol can have profound effects on driving. This specialized training was sponsored by the Idaho State Police and provided to us at no cost. Deputy Reichert graduated at the top of his class and will be able to testify in court, where the term “expert” has important legal implications.

 Hispanic Liaison Team: We have developed a Hispanic liaison team to foster good relationships and communication within our community. The team currently consists of Deputy Christian Gonzales and Lt. Fabrizio Lizano. We hope to add additional deputies in the future. The goals of the team are to build relationships that increase trust between the police and our Spanish-speaking community, decrease the rate of victimization among the Hispanic community, and increase the number who report crimes. By attending community meetings and events, this team hopes to increase the frequency of collaborative interactions between law enforcement and the Spanish-speaking community, promote cultural competency training as part of a standard training program, and brainstorm strategies to reduce language barriers.

 Hostage Negotiator: In May Corporal John Lowder III completed phase three of Hostage Negotiator Training, giving us the only two fully certified hostage crisis negotiators in the Wood River Valley. Law Enforcement negotiators have established a reputation for successful, nonviolent resolution for a range of different incidents. The goal of a hostage negotiator is to limit the risk of death or serious injury to officers, hostages, and suspects by communicating with the subject(s) involved in a manner that convinces them to turn themselves in peacefully and achieving a successful and/or tactical resolution to the incident with minimal force. Individuals suffering from a mental crisis often need the special handling and communication skills a hostage crisis negotiator can provide to de-escalate the situation.

Our Hostage Negotiator Team Accomplishment is aligned with the following Strategic Priorities:

 Takes the time to assess risk and incorporates risk management appropriately into its decision making  Plans, prepares, and responds to economic, social, and environmental change  Understands its constituency and believes county government exists to serve their needs  Understands and focuses on customer and client service  Works to meet community needs when determined appropriate and possible  Provides leadership reflecting the goals and values of the entire Blaine County community  Is unified in its sense of purpose  Exhibits good morale  Promotes a collaborative team approach to issues and problem solving  Maintains a strong ethical foundation  Engages in excellent intra- and inter-departmental communication  Optimizes employee training and improvement opportunities  Strives for consistency  Strives to exceed expectations  Is equipped, trained, and very well prepared to protect public safety and health

 E-Ticketing System: In May, with the assistance of the Blaine County IT department, we were able to take the E-Ticketing System live. Funded by a grant from the Idaho State Police, in cooperation with the Idaho Department of Transportation, the various components of the e-ticketing system including computers, scanners, software, mounting brackets, and printers are worth approximately $22,000. The new system has been provided to all County Patrol Team and Ketchum Patrol Team deputies. When a deputy issues a citation, the driver’s license information and the vehicle’s registration information are scanned into the e-ticketing software using a handheld scanner. The citation is printed out on a small printer and then transmitted electronically to databases maintained by the police and the courts. There are numerous benefits to this new system. It saves time for both officers and court clerks. According to studies, it could cut the time it takes to ticket an offending driver by 80 percent, putting the officer back on the road to patrol and allowing the driver to go on their way. Spending less time pulled over on the sides of Idaho’s roadways promotes officer and citizen safety.

 Community Connectivity: Social Media is a major part of our Community Outreach. Now in its eighth year, our online presence is significant. We currently have over 18,000 followers on Facebook and over 1,100 on Twitter. We regularly communicate public safety information and operational services information to our citizens efficiently, effectively, and in a timely manner to optimize public accessibility to county services and information. We are proud of our social media performance measurements from 2014-2021:

 25.9 million people reached since inception Social Media Followers  8 million people reached in FY20 20000  231,000 Message Reactions 18000 16000  1.3 million Engagements 14000  24,000 Message Comments 12000 10000  147,000 Message Shares 8000  57% Public Safety Information 6000  4000 14% Customer Service Information 2000  24% BCSO News 0  5% Community Connectivity/Transparency 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 YTD

 Backcountry Patrols: Last summer we were able to perform 39 backcountry patrols on US Forest Service, BLM, and public lands within Blaine County including many of the campgrounds, summer cabin areas, and recreational trailheads. The focus was on backcountry safety and off-road vehicle enforcement. Deputies performed these patrols using patrol vehicles, ATVs, and UTVs. The backcountry patrol program always receives very good feedback from the public we encounter. This program is a seasonal continuation of our winter snowmobile patrol, which has also been very successful over the last few years.

Blaine County Sheriff’s Office FY2022 Budget Overview Page 15

 Drug Detection Canine Program: Our BCSO K9 teams have been deployed 330 times with 103 seizures, including a firearm, $11,911 cash, and contributed to 53 arrests. The K9s recently trained with the Twin Falls Police Department K9 Unit and will have their annual POST recertification this summer. Seizures include Marijuana (Oil, Butter, Wax, Plant, etc.), Psilocybin Mushrooms, Cocaine, Methamphetamine, MDMA, and various types of paraphernalia. We hope to return to using the canines to promote public education and awareness of the Sheriff’s Office’s commitment to reduce and prevent drug use in Blaine County once COVID-19 stabilizes. The public has been very receptive to our K9 program.

To achieve our Operational Mission, we must adjust our budgets to reflect the cost of doing business to meet our mandates and be adequately staffed with trained, dedicated, and professional individuals. Our Retention and Recruiting Goal is based upon a staffing plan designed to keep up with increasing service needs, maintain our commitment to the community, and uphold our standards of excellence.

Retention & • Staffing Level Strategy Recruiting Goal • Staff Compensation Strategy

As we continue to adapt to ongoing social and economic changes, we know we must pay competitive wages, or we will lose both our valued staff and our investments in them. Retention, workload and staffing levels must be balanced, or as an agency, we will experience an increased risk of officer safety issues, high turnover rates, lower levels of service, deputy burnout, and a decrease in morale. Our Retention and Recruiting Goal enhances our ability to serve our community, which improves public safety. For FY2022, our Retention and Recruiting Goal is focused on three strategies to increase our staff level and staff compensation to support our Organizational Mission.

Staffing Level Strategy • New FTEs

We have identified the need to add two new full-time equivalents to our staff level to support our Operation Mission.

Blaine County Sheriff’s Office FY2022 Budget Overview Page 23

Drivers Services FTE Tactic: We are requesting an additional Driver’s License Clerk to perform the issuance of driver’s licenses as required by our legal mandate Idaho Code 31-2202. In Idaho, the County Assessor is required under Title 63 to issue vehicle titles and vehicle registrations. These are two very different functions and utilize two different software systems provided by the Idaho Transportation Department. In 2018, the County Assessor and County Sheriff agreed to operate these two functions as one team, consisting of one Sheriff’s Office employee and three Assessor’s Office employees. All four county employees were cross-trained to perform both services at the Blaine County Annex facility.

For the past year, the Assessor’s Office has had one employee provide backup to Driver’s Services but it is uncertain if this will continue in the future. The Assessor has advised that he is not inclined to provide any further resources to assist with the Sheriff’s statutory requirement to issue Driver Licenses.

A new Full-Time Equivalent position is needed in Driver’s Services to maintain the appropriate level of customer service required. The volume of Driver’s License issuance has increased over the years, especially with the additional requirement to issue the federally mandated Star Card. To maintain the operating hours of the county, handle the level of service required, account for employee vacation, sick, and other leave time, we need to have two employees. The option to suspend service during absences is not something we, nor the public would find acceptable.

Recently the Idaho Legislature passed House Bill 161 to increase fees for certain licenses, permits, and identification cards. The intent of the bill is to increase the amount of revenue that counties retain. It is unclear how these new fees will increase our drivers' services revenue. The finical impact of this additional Sheriff’s Office employee is $42,723 in wages and $28,367 in estimated benefits for a total of $71,090. We encourage you to consider this investment for FY2022 to maintain the efficient operation of the Driver's Services team and provide the excellent level of service our citizens deserve.

Patrol Staffing Level Tactic: For FY2022 we are requesting to replace one patrol deputy position on the Ketchum Patrol Team which was lost last year due to the pandemic revenue shortfall. The Ketchum Patrol Team currently has five patrol deputies and three sergeants who patrol 24/7. Although COVID-19 influenced travel and tourism, the Ketchum Patrol Team did not see a massive drop in calls for service, reports, or arrests. We saw increases in weapon- related incidents and many vacation and second homes were occupied this past year. Our patrol staff level is inadequate to meet the level of service for the City of Ketchum and has significant impacts on officer safety, response times, workload, employee retention, and liability risk management.

An additional deputy will allow us more efficient and effective coverage of our jurisdiction, address traffic complaints, special enforcements, and security checks. It will increase our visibility, community outreach, and help us to manage our overtime. Another FTE will provide scheduling for vacation, training, and medical leaves. This patrol position is a much-needed input to meeting our operational mission outcome and secure investment into the Blaine County Sheriff’s Office.

Blaine County Sheriff’s Office FY2022 Budget Overview Page 24

Staff Compensation Strategy • Housing Allowance Tactic

Our Staff Compensation strategy is designed to adapt to the ongoing social and economic change to achieve our Operational Mission outcome. The housing allowance tactic and merit and market tactic have been developed to support this strategy.

Housing Allowance Tactic: We are requesting a housing allowance of $500 per month for our certified patrol deputies. The cost of living in Blaine County has made recruiting and retaining extremely challenging. According to Sun Valley Real Estate, the average sale price for a single-family home is up 60%, the sold volume is up 123%, and the total number of active listings is down 3%. This translates into fewer places to buy or rent and more expensive mortgages or rent. Our employees are having difficulties locating and affording housing. This year we have had employees living in motels, receiving multiple rent increases, and being priced out of the market. Ideally, we would like to provide a housing allowance for all of our staff. At this time, we are only requesting the allowance for our patrol deputies who are required to live within county boundaries. Providing a stipend will make a significant and positive impact on our ability to recruit and retain our staff to support our Organizational Mission. The housing allowance for County Patrol Team is $114,000. The housing allowance for our Ketchum Patrol Team is $66,000.

Staff Compensation • Merit & Market Tactic Strategy • Overtime Tactic

Merit, Market, and Overtime Adjustments: To remain competitive, we must continue to adjust to socio- economic change with merit and market increases. In partnership with the Blaine County Budget Officer, we are requesting a 4% market adjustment and 1% merit adjustment for all our teams as a tactic to assist the Compensation Strategy of our Retention and Recruitment Goal. We have adjusted our overtime budgets 5% to keep our wages in alignment with these increases.

The merit, market, and overtime adjustments are strategically aligned with our Operational Mission Outcome.

Blaine County Sheriff’s Office FY2022 Budget Overview Page 25

Improve Internal Process Justification

Improve Internal Processes Outcome • Provide Required Inputs Goal

To achieve our desired outcome of improving our internal processes, modeling excellent government, and responding to economic, social, and environmental change, we must provide the required inputs.

Provide Required Inputs Goal • Cost of Doing Business Strategy

To support this Strategy we have developed three tactics.

Cost of Doing Business • WatchGuard Server Tactic Strategy • Radio Replacement Plan Tactic

WatchGuard Server: We are requesting $22,685 to replace the server for our WatchGuard Video Systems. We currently have 14 in-car systems and 18 body cameras. Video created by these systems aids in the prosecution of offenders, documents contacts between our patrol staff and the general public, preventing frivolous complaints, and improves the overall performance and customer service of our staff. Our current server is on a Windows 7 platform which is no longer supported and cannot be updated. The server has already crashed several times. The Blaine County IT department has worked hard to nurse it back to life and maintain basic operation. However, the server is not able to adapt to or connect with the current software on newer equipment. When we update, exchange, or swap cameras, it causes problems for the entire system. Our best option is to replace our outdated Windows 7 server with a Linux Platform server. The new server will be able to add new camera systems, as well as continue to use our current

Blaine County Sheriff’s Office FY2022 Budget Overview Page 26 devices. It will also allow us to update our current camera software and provide additional data storage, which is necessary for higher resolution cameras. Replacing a failing server is a cost of doing business and an effective risk management investment. This strategic request has the support of the IT department and is aligned with both our Operational Mission and our Improving Internal Processes Outcome.

Mobile and Portable Radio Replacement Plan: In 2007 Blaine County embarked on a mission to develop a 700 Mhz Digital Network to provide better radio communication for Police, Fire, and EMS throughout Blaine County. The project consisted of the installation of three 700 Mhz radio sites on Bald Mountain, Dollar Mountain, and Picabo Mountain, radio consoles in the Blaine County Emergency Communications Center, and portable and mobile radios for Law Enforcement and Fire/EMS agencies. Most of the costs associated with the purchase and installation of this system were achieved through grant awards from Federal and State grant programs. The grant programs required that all equipment had to be P25 compliant.

In May of 2009, Blaine County applied for and ultimately received a grant award through the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant Formula through the Idaho State Police Planning, Grants, and Research. The grant award was $370,000 to purchase P25 compliant portable and mobile radios for all the law enforcement agencies in the Wood River Valley.

The Blaine County Sheriff’s Office currently has 30 Portable and 25 Mobile radios that are nearing their end of life. Most of these radios went into service in 2009. The current model portable radio is the Motorola XTS2500 and the current model mobile radio is the Motorola XLT2500. Motorola has discontinued manufacturing parts and services for the XTS and XLT series radios.

Our current radios will be 13 years old in FY2022 and maintaining them to serviceable condition is becoming more expensive and at some point soon replacement parts will be impossible to find. During the past two years when we had to send individual radios in for repair, we have been told by our vendor that they either can’t find replacement parts or they have become so expensive it no longer makes financial sense to repair. Currently, the minimum charge to replace a volume knob or channel select knob is $700, roughly a third of the cost of a new radio. Any internal failures of electronics require full replacement of the radio.

We are proposing to implement a phased-in approach for the replacement of BCSO radios. The following is a cost breakdown of the replacement cost of our current radio inventory:

 Portable Radios: $146,801- 30 Motorola APX6000 700/800 Mhz Portable Radios  Mobile Radios: $131,512 - 25 Motorola APX6500 700/800 Mhz Mobile Radios  Total Cost to Replace All Radios: $278,312

This is a significant expense and capital investment for Blaine County. There are several options on how we can breakdown this cost of doing business either by purchasing the portable radios in FY2022 and the mobile radios in FY2023, or by using a two, three, and four years phased-in approach:

Two Year Plan: FY2022 Capital Expense- $139,156 FY2023 Capital Expense- $139,156

Three Year Plan: FY2022 Capital Expense- $92,770 FY2023 Capital Expense- $92.770 FY2024 Capital Expense- $92,770

Blaine County Sheriff’s Office FY2022 Budget Overview Page 27

Four Year Plan: FY2022 Capital Expense- $69,578 FY2023 Capital Expense- $69,578 FY2024 Capital Expense- $69,578 FY2025 Capital Expense- $69,578

Installation Cost Estimate: $5,075- All Dash Mount ($203/radio) $11,775- All Remote Mount ($471/radio)

Radio communication is a critical tool for all public safety agencies and especially so in Blaine County. Due to its geography and terrain, many places in Blaine County do not have cell service. Often, our only line of communication is our 700 Mhz Digital Network. We rely on it to perform our essential duties to protect the citizens of Blaine County and to protect our employees. We are well aware that this is a significant capital cost, but it is one of our most valuable assets. Blaine County has invested a great deal into this system and this will be one further step to enhance the network and ensure the safety of our citizens and our staff. This strategic request is aligned with both our Operational Mission and Improving Internal Processes.

Blaine County Sheriff’s Office FY2022 Budget Overview Page 33

Account Account Name Sheriff Budget Justifications Number & Amount 479-00 Vehicle Justification: We are requesting a $10,000 increase to our vehicle expenses Expenses line item for a total of $165,000 to reflect increases in fuel costs. An audit of $10,000 recent fuel expenditures indicates during the past three fiscal years we spent between $59,000-70,000 annually on fuel for our fleet at an average price of $2.46 per gallon. As of the end of May, we are paying a government rate of $3.14, an increase of 27% more per gallon. Some states are currently reporting pump prices between $5.00-$7.00 per gallon and increasing fuel shortages. Given the unpredictable nature of fuel inflation at this time, we feel this increase is warranted. Patrolling our roads to protect our community is critical to our Operational Mission Outcome.

479-01 Disaster Justification: We are requesting an increase of $2,608 for a total of $64,068 Services our 50% portion of the wages and benefit costs for the Disaster Services Coordinator Coordinator position which we share with Blaine County Emergency $2,608 Communications. This increase represents a 4% market and 1% merit increase as recommended by the Blaine County Budget Officer.

495-01 700 MHz Justification: We are requesting a $450 increase to fund the FY2022 radio Master maintenance fee. Our 75 portable and mobile 700 MHz radios cost $231 each Maintenance for a total cost of $17,325, which is a $450 increase from FY2021. This cost $450 of doing business is strategically aligned with our Operational Mission.

495-02 VeriPic Reduction: With the introduction of the new Central Square System in Software FY2021, we have discontinued the use of the Veripic Evidence System. This Maintenance creates a budget reduction of $874 and an actual cost reduction of $1,749 from FY2021 expenditures. -$874

509-01 Lexipol Policy Reduction: Lexipol Policy Manual provides exceptional benefits including Manual electronic employee acknowledgments, tracking of policy updates, and ongoing daily training bulletins to ensure employees have a solid -$176 understanding of our policies to help reduce liability. The FY2022 Sheriff’s portion for 26 users is $5,881, which is a budget reduction of $176 and an actual cost reduction of $226 from FY2021 expenditures. This cost of doing business is strategically aligned with our Operational Mission Outcome.

Blaine County Sheriff’s Office FY2022 Budget Overview Page 34

Account Account Name Sheriff Budget Justifications Number & Amount 556 Ammunitions Justification: We are requesting an increase of $4,000, for a total line item / Weapons of $10,000, to fund our ammunition and weapon account. Over the past year, $4,000 ammunition costs have risen over 300%. 9 mm ammunition went from 0.17 to 0.62 per round and 5.56 ammunition went from 0.28 to 0.98 per round. We need to shoot a minimum of 16,500 rounds per year to meet our required training levels. Unfortunately, this only maintains our training levels, it does not advance our skill levels. It equals only 100 rounds per deputy per training, which is extremely minimal for law enforcement training. To adequately equip our deputies to safely perform their duties we need to provide sufficient ammunition for them to properly train. This increase is strategically aligned with our Operational Mission Outcome. 556-02 Logysis Note: With the introduction of the new Central Square System in FY2021, Motorola we have discontinued the need for the Logysis and Motorola Maintenance Maintenance costs. Although this line item was not budgeted for in FY2021, there have -$40,097 been over $40,097 FY2021 RMS expenditures year-to-date. This amount is reflected in the FY2021 Revised Budget. 556-04 Sheriff RMS Justification: We are requesting an increase of $26,214 for a total line Contribution item of $68,672 to fund the Sheriff’s portion of the Central Square record $26,214 management system which was implemented in FY2021. This cost of doing business is strategically aligned with our Operational Mission. 569 Education Justification: We are requesting an increase of $2,000 for a total line item $2,000 of $14,000 to fund our training education line item. In FY2021 this line item was reduced by $2,000. As a result of COVID, many of our training classes were canceled last year. We are now faced with the challenge of meeting state continuing education requirements and internal training schedules. Returning this line item to its previous amount will allow us to get back on track. This increase is strategically aligned with our Operational Mission Outcome. 591-02 Recruitment/ Justification: We are requesting a $500 increase in our recruiting budget Hiring to fund increasing hiring costs. Finding qualified candidates has always been a $500 challenge. We are seeing more applicants from outside Idaho. The local cost of our required polygraph has recently increased by 50% and we are seeing higher costs for both polygraph and medical testing for out-of-state applicants. As of May, we have spent 75% of this line item with multiple positions to still fill this year. This increase is strategically aligned with our Operational Mission Outcome.

Blaine County Sheriff’s Office FY2022 Budget Overview Page 35

Account Account Name Sheriff Budget Justifications Number & Amount 714-05 Telephone Justification: We are requesting an increase of $588 for a total of $10,980 Allowance to fund the telephone allowance line item. This increase will pay for one $588 additional cell phone reimbursement needed for restructuring our Detention Team command staff. Please see our Detention Budget for information on this restructuring. This cost of doing business is strategically aligned with our Improving Internal Processes outcome. NEW Housing Strategic Request: We are requesting $114,000 to provide a monthly Allowance housing allowance to aid our Recruiting and Retention Goal. Please see $114,000 Outcome #1 on page 25 for information on this strategic request.

806 Capital Office Reduction: This represents a one-time capital cost for the Central Square -$29,935 record management system which was implemented in FY2021. Please see the Sheriff RMS Contribution for this year’s Central Square costs. 806-01 Capital Need Watchguard Server: We are requesting a capital expenditure of Computer $22,685 to replace our Watchguard server that supports our body cameras and $22,685 in-car video systems. Please see Outcome #2 on pages 26-27 for information on this strategic request. 806-03 Capital Strategic Request: We are requesting a capital expenditure of $146,801 to Equipment replace 30 Motorola APX6000 700/800 Mhz Portable Radios as part of a $146,801 phased radio replacement plan. Please see Outcome #2 on pages 27-28 for information about this strategic request. 403 Market Adjust Note: The Blaine County Budget Officer has projected a 4% market $89,600 adjustment and a 1% merit adjustment for FY2022 salaries. These estimates have been calculated from scheduled FY2022 salaries, estimated benefits, Merit Adjust protective custody, and overtime. These estimates have been verified with the $25,701 Blaine County Payroll Department and are in alignment with the Blaine County Human Resources Wage Compensation Plan. Benefits Note: Based upon the Blaine County Budget Officer’s current projection of Estimate benefit increases we are estimating a decrease of $6,590 for a total of $921,578 -$6,590 in benefit costs as compared to the FY2021 budgeted amount. This calculation includes scheduled wages, step increases, overtime, and has been verified with the Blaine County Payroll Department.

Ketchum Patrol Team Accomplishments

 Chief Transition: The appointment of Lt. Jamie Shaw as Chief has brought new leadership to the Ketchum Patrol Team. Command staff transitions add a layer of complexity and challenge to the management of the day-to-day operations, however, we have had a smooth transition for both our staff and the public. It has been met with very positive staff morale and good relations with the City of Ketchum administration. We are working hard to find ways of improving our team to better serve our citizens, meet our fiduciary responsibilities and adapt to ongoing change.

 Ketchum Field Days – The Ketchum Patrol Team is in its 11th year of community outreach programs. Maintaining a close relationship with our local schools has always been a priority. This regular contact with the students has helped us establish strong relationships with the children and reinforces that we are there to help them if they ever need it. Last year we were unable to hold many events due to COVID-19. This year we were able to hold the Hemingway Police Field Day on June 2, 2021, and the Ketchum Bike Rodeo on May 29, 2021. When schools, our community, and law enforcement work together, we can achieve positive outcomes.

 COVID-19 Mandates: The City of Ketchum was the first locale in the state to enact emergency mask ordinances, leaving our deputies in uncharted enforcement waters. Although hotel tourism was down, many second-home owners, who were unaware of local ordinances, came and stayed for long periods. The Ketchum Patrol Team did an excellent job of communicating and educating residents and visitors on the changing health orders, public area closures, and city ordinances.

 DUI Enforcement: The Ketchum Patrol Team conducts regular DUI operations to detect impaired drivers. We prioritize this effort for the safety of our community. Each officer is trained and certified in Standard Field Sobriety Testing (SFST) and the use of in-vehicle Lifeloc breathalyzer equipment. Our arrest numbers for DUIs dipped slightly this year due to the quarantine, but overall remained consistent. Our main focus will always be to provide the highest quality service so that Ketchum remains a safe community.

Account Name Account & Ketchum Patrol Budget Justifications Number Amount Special Difference Note: The “Difference Amount” column reflects our proposed Note Amount FY2022 increases from the FY2021 budgeted amount unless otherwise noted and may vary from the actual costs incurred in the FY2021 Revised budget. 401-01 Salary Chief Reduction: Due to a personnel change there is a reduction of $9,919 in Reduction our Chief Salary account from the FY2021 budgeted amount. The total cost for FY2022 is $91,826 which includes $909 for a pro-rated scheduled step $9,919 increase in alignment with Blaine County’s Human Resource Wage Compensation Plan. 401-02 Salaries Deputies Strategic Request: In FY2021 we agreed to reduce the Ketchum Patrol $67,287 Team by one deputy to help offset the city’s pandemic revenue shortfall. This year we are requesting to return that position to adequately staff our team, serve the city, and allow for training, sick, and vacation time. We are requesting an increase of $67,287 for a total of $709,510. This amount includes $6,580 for pro-rated scheduled step increases in alignment with Blaine County’s Human Resource Wage Compensation Plan and $60,549 for the cost of one lateral deputy position. 409-09 Overtime Justification: The Blaine County Budget Officer has projected a 4% $3,145 market adjustment and a 1% merit adjustment for FY2022 salaries. We have adjusted our overtime by 5% to reflect these increases and maintain this line item in alignment with our wages.

Account Name Account & Ketchum Patrol Budget Justifications Number Amount 479 Vehicle Expense Justification: We are requesting a $2,600 increase to our Vehicle $2,600 Expense line item for a total of $42,896 to reflect increases in fuel costs. An audit of recent fuel expenditures indicates during the past few years we spent approximately $19,000 annually on fuel for the Ketchum Patrol fleet at an average price of $2.46 per gallon. As of this May, we are paying a government rate of $3.14, an increase of 27% more per gallon. Some states are currently reporting pump prices between $5.00-$7.00 per gallon and increasing fuel shortages. Given the unpredictable nature of fuel inflation at this time, we feel this increase is warranted. Patrolling our roads to protect our city is critical to our Operational Mission Outcome. 528 Dues / Memberships Justification: We are requesting an increase of $193 for a total of $4,565 $193 to reflect the current costs of our dues and memberships to Air St. Lukes, Hurtig Shooting Center, the Chief of Police Association, and Idaho Police Mountain Biking Associaton.

Blaine County Sheriff’s Office FY2022 Budget Overview Page 43

Account Name Account & Ketchum Patrol Budget Justifications Number Amount 803-01 Capital Vehicle Strategic Request: For the fiscal year 2022 we are requesting to purchase $95,000 two new vehicles “upfitted” for law enforcement for the Ketchum Patrol Team. One of the vehicles would replace a 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe that has 115,000 miles on it and has begun to require repairs beyond basic maintenance. We plan to replace it with a new Chevrolet Tahoe. The other vehicle in need of replacement is a 2007 Chevrolet Suburban driven by the Chief that has 82,500 miles and is 14 years old. It has a myriad of computer code issues and needs a transmission replacement. This vehicle is impracticable as a patrol vehicle due to its size and poor fuel economy. The Suburban will be replaced with a new Dodge Durango which is lower in cost than a Tahoe and is a good command staff vehicle. The purchase of two new vehicles would assist with upgrading an aging vehicle fleet and take the stress off the other fleet vehicles which occurs when vehicles are down for repairs. The total cost of this capital outlay to purchase a Chevrolet Tahoe and a Dodge Durango with upfitting is $95,000. 805-05 Capital Equipment Strategic Request: We are requesting a capital expenditure of $68,507 $68,507 to replace 14 Motorola APX6000 700/800 Mhz Portable Radios as part of a phased radio replacement plan.

These estimates have been verified with the Blaine County $11,619 Payroll Department and are in alignment with the Blaine County Human Resources Wage Compensation Plan. Benefits Estimate Justification: Based upon the Blaine County Budget Officer’s current $37,040 projection of benefit increases and the addition of one new FTE, we are estimating an increase of $37,040 for a total of $387,500 for benefit costs as compared to the FY2021 budgeted amount. This calculation includes scheduled wages, step increases, overtime, and has been verified with the Blaine County Payroll Department.

Blaine County Sheriff’s Office FY2022 Budget Overview Page 45

Detention Team Major Accomplishments

 COVID-19 Protocol We are extremely proud that our detention center has not had one positive inmate case of COVID-19 to date. We accomplished this by acting quickly when COVID-19 was identified, creating procedures for screening staff, inmates, and arresting officers prior to entry. Detention staff regularly sanitized entry doors and working areas within the detention center. Inmates were also issued cleaning supplies to sanitize the blocks and cells. Detention staff was required to use provided PPE; Inmates were given PPE upon request. We worked with the Prosecuting Attorney’s office, the courts, and the judges to minimize the amount of time arrestees spent within the detention center upon arrest. Given that many facilities had rampant COVID-19 cases, we are proud of this accomplishment.

Our COVID-19 Protocol Accomplishment is aligned with the following Strategic Priorities:

 Takes the time to assess risk and incorporates risk management appropriately into its decision making  Models excellent government  Promulgates county performance standards, performance measurement, and re-evaluation  Plans, prepares, and responds to economic, social, and environmental change  Understands its constituency and believes county government exists to serve their needs  Understands and focuses on customer and client service  Works to meet community needs when determined appropriate and possible  Provides leadership reflecting the goals and values of the entire Blaine County community  Is unified in its sense of purpose  Exhibits good morale  Promotes a collaborative team approach to issues and problem solving  Maintains a strong ethical foundation  Engages in excellent intra- and inter-departmental communication  Provides a desirable, responsive work environment  Strives for consistency  Sets clear employee performance and evaluation standards and upholds them  Strives to exceed expectations  Is equipped, trained, and very well prepared to protect public safety and health

 Accommodation for the Courts We were very successful in accommodating the courts with hearings, sentencings, Pre-Sentence Investigations, evaluations, and other types of court business during the pandemic. We set up Zoom meetings in our programs room to essentially became a video courtroom to avoid possible contamination by transporting prisoners to court. By minimizing the exposure of inmates to the public, the video courtroom increased the safety and security of the facility as well as for the inmates, and our staff in the detention center.

 New Video Visitation System This year we installed a new video visitation system utilizing tablets in the detention center. The original video visitation system failed during the first wave of COVID-19. The new system from our inmate phone company GTL allows video visitation in our lobby and online so friends and family can visit from home. This system fills in the missing piece for inmates that are housed here out of Twin Falls and other counties, allowing them to visit with their friends and family without the need to travel. The tablets also have educational material, games, messages, Law Library, and other assorted apps for the inmates to use while incarcerated. These tablets are shared by inmates and offer more revenue for our existing phone trust.

Our New Video Visitation System Accomplishment is aligned with the following Strategic Priorities:

The new servers are very robust and provide significantly more data storage. We are also able to adjust the settings on the cameras to create a better definition. We continue to move forward in the replacement of cameras to eventually upgrade all cameras from analog to digital IP protocol. These cameras help us to maintain the safety and security of our facility and minimize risk.

Our Security Camera Server Upgrade Accomplishment is aligned with the following Strategic Priorities:

 LiveScan Fingerprint Scanner Grants We were awarded two separate ISP grants for LiveScan fingerprinting equipment. One scanner will replace our ink rolling process in the lobby and allow us to do Sex Offender and applicant prints electronically with a LiveScan fingerprint scanner from NEC. This will make the process cleaner and reduce mistakes due to the LiveScan self- audit feature as the prints are taken. It also allows us to transmit the prints directly to the state in a more timely manner and eliminate the need to mail the prints to the state. The second grant will replace our existing LiveScan fingerprint scanner in the booking area which will no longer be supported at the end of this year. Our current scanner could not interface with the new Central Square Record Management System and it had to be replaced with newer technology. These two grants for the new LiveScan fingerprint scanners saved the county approximately $32,647 in capital expenditures.

Our LiveScan Fingerprint Scanner Grants Accomplishment is aligned with the following Strategic Priorities:

 Uses citizen and taxpayer resources efficiently and effectively  Considers fully the costs and benefits of each expense or cut  Is prepared for unforeseen events not otherwise reflected in budget planning with sufficient contingency reserves

Cindy Malm continues to be pleased with our professional staff and the management and cleanliness of our facility. We have established a reputation for being very respectful, friendly, and our ability to show patience when dealing with difficult inmates. She also approved our Staffing Plan with the acknowledgment that we still need a lieutenant position to complete the plan for the size of our facility and the current disciplinary, appeals, and grievance processes.

Out of County Housing – Special Note COVID-19 has slowed our out-of-county housing revenue until the pandemic stabilizes. IDOC has moved all of its prisoners from County Jails to fill newly created bed space and out-of-state holding contracts. We foresee this revenue stream will return in the future, but the time frame is still unknown.

GLOSSARY OF TERMS

Contractual Services: Expenditures for services and materials supplied by any organization other than the County.

Commodities: Expenditures for equipment, supplies, hardware, and other miscellaneous items not supplied by contractors. The unit cost for these items is under one hundred dollars ($100).

Capital Outlay: Expenditures for equipment and hardware which exceed the cost of five thousand dollars ($5000) and have a lifetime of one year or more.

Fiscal Year Priorities: Each year the BCC will focus on a certain subset of the Strategic Objectives determined to be most important for the coming fiscal year. These priorities are referred to as Fiscal Year Priorities.

Goals are action plans for teams and/or individuals. Goals make the outcome tangible and therefore should have the following characteristics:

 Specific – details who, what, where, how  Measurable – broken down into a standard or basis of objective comparison (#, %, Y/N)  Achievable – within the abilities of the group and the scope of the dedicated resources  Relevant – meets a legitimate customer need  Timely – has a designated starting and ending point

Mission Statement: A clear statement of purpose for any operational entity or organization. Mission statements help an organization decide what it should do as well as what it should not do. The organization’s outcomes, goals, programs, and projects should logically cascade from the mission statement.

Outcomes are the intended result; the end of action; a statement that matches a response to a relevant customer need. Each office and department will establish a reasonable number of outcomes that directly support the Fiscal Year Priorities. Outcomes should address the most critical and/or relevant issues facing an office or department in its service to the community. It may be necessary to establish priorities among outcomes to improve their usefulness in allocating resources.

Resilience is the ability to bounce back after a disaster, whether natural (such as earthquakes, hurricanes, and tornadoes (or COVID-19)) or man-made (such as bombings and chemical spills). It involves anticipating disasters and developing systems to mitigate them and includes processes to prepare for, withstand, and recover from stresses and shocks.

Blaine County Sheriff’s Office FY2022 Budget Overview Page 58

Results Teams may be formed when two or more internal business partners come together for a common interest or a common purpose. Results Teams help align common outcomes across operational lines. They are intended to provide a more unified and cohesive budgeting solution by aligning the needs of multiple operational units.

Results Team Project Plan provides a framework for clearly describing key elements related to multi-department projects.

Shared Values represent those common beliefs we share as an organization. They are the anchor points for the way we think and act in our service to our community.

Strategic Objectives are established by the BCC and reflect stakeholder concerns, needs, and priorities as well as other factors impacting and affecting our community. They add clarity to the purpose and role of the county government within our community.

Strategies: Teams and individuals may choose to develop strategies to help them achieve their goals. Strategies relate to ways that the environment can be influenced (internal or external) to meet established goals. Multiple strategies may relate to the achievement of a single goal. The use of flowcharts or strategy mapping is encouraged in the design of strategies. To optimize the success of these strategies, opportunities should be provided for input from those who will be affected.

Sustainability implies continuity, something that is replenishable and that can continue without artificial inputs. Referring to something as sustainable indicates that its resources will never run out, often because these resources are used, broken down, and then used again.

Tactics describe how strategies will be implemented and include activities and services to be performed for an employee to reach his/her goals. Tactics will most often be used where higher levels of supervision and accountability are needed.

Years of Service: This Salary Schedule column reflects the length of employment only with the Blaine County Sheriff’s Office.

Vision: A vision is a mental picture of what tomorrow will look like. It expresses our highest standards and values. It’s our ideal and unique image of the future for the common good.

Re: 2021 Jail Inspection

Dear Sheriff Harkins:

As you are aware, the jail inspection this year has changed to a data-only inspection because of the outbreak of the coronavirus throughout the and safety concerns of non-essential people entering the jails. I would like to thank Capt. Jay Davis for sending me a very detailed flash drive of the items I requested for the inspection. The information on the flash drive was very thorough and organized as it is every year. The inspection checklist was filled out completely with a lot of descriptive comments which reduced any questions I had. Capt. Davis and his team are very careful and exact with their documentation which always makes my job easier. Capt. Davis also got back to me immediately with answers to questions I still had and documentation that I requested. I really appreciate all of you for what you do to keep the jail well-maintained and the policies followed. Your food service is provided by Summit. Your menus looked good and Summit’s dietitian’s form letter and signed menus dated November 30, 2020, showed approval of the menus. You normally use inmates to help in the kitchen but have had trouble lately finding qualified inmates. Capt. Davis explained you have a two-plus-one rule in the kitchen. There has to be two inmates plus one kitchen staff or two kitchen staff and one inmate at a minimum. Inmates are never allowed in the kitchen alone. The deputies serve the trays to the housing units. The South Central Public Health Department health inspection dated November 17, 2020 showed no violations and a permit was issued that does not expire until December 31, 2021. I reviewed your policies and procedures on PREA, Fourteen-day Health Appraisals, Clothing and Hygiene issues to new inmates, Release Planning, Inmate Visitation, Access to Courts and Counsel, Inmate Hygiene, Building Evacuation Procedures, and Detention Evacuation Procedures and all reflected you are following Idaho Jail Standards in those areas. Your evacuation plans were very detailed and looked great. Capt. Davis is your VINE Coordinator. The rated capacity of your facility is 90 inmates and your average daily number of inmates in 2020 was 48.5 inmates. As you are aware, this inspection included some extra procedures to inspect eight standards selected by ICRMP for more detailed inspection.

Blaine County Sheriff’s Office FY2022 Budget Overview Page 60

STANDARDS SELECTED BY ICRMP FOR THE ICRMP JAIL INSPECTION PROGRAM The following is a list of the Idaho Jail Standards adopted by the Idaho Sheriffs’ Association that were selected by ICRMP for their underwriting purposes. Failure to comply with these standards may change the terms of the County’s insurance coverage with ICRMP. Please contact Carl Ericson at ICRMP for more information.

Staffing – In compliance with the standard IJS 03.02 I looked at your staff schedules and verified you have a minimum of two deputies on shift plus a Control operator. Capt. Davis explained that, besides the two deputies on the floor, there are Sergeant shifts that overlap until 3:00 am to 7:00 am. There are always three on shift including the Control operator. I reviewed your staffing plan and it looked good and shows you have a total of 23 needed to efficiently operate the jail. You have been approved for 16 staff which includes a Captain, three Sergeants, two Corporals, and ten floor deputies. You also have been approved for seven civilian positions which includes an administrative assistant and six Control positions. Capt. Davis explained that you are currently down one Sergeant’s position. You try to have females on each shift with a combination of the Control operators and floor deputies. If a female is not on duty, you have the males conduct a hands-off search and then the inmate is pat searched when a female comes on duty. In an absolute emergency situation, a male will conduct a pat search with another male present.

Training and Staff Development – In compliance with the standards IJS 04.01 IJS 04.03 IJS 04.07 I verified current detention certifications on your staff by comparing the POST print-out against your employee list and all but one of your employees is certified within the year. You have an extension from POST for that employee. All of your detention deputies were current with their 40 hours of training every two years. All of the staff had PREA training in April and May of 2020. Staff who have worked for the facility since 2019 are current in CPR training. There is a plan to have a training for all of the staff once the office training restrictions due to Covid have been lifted.

Fire Safety and Emergency Procedures – In compliance with the standards IJS 06.01 IJS 06.02 IJS 06.03 IJS 06.04 Your fire safety officer is Deputy Jeremiah Linderman. The documentation of the monthly fire inspections was very good.

Blaine County Sheriff’s Office FY2022 Budget Overview Page 61

Several tabletop fire drills and physical drills were held in 2020 and 2021. The documentation was very good. Capt. Davis verified that all of the staff have had fire drills over the last except two new hires and two that were on vacation. He stated that they will soon be done participating in one. Fire evacuation plans are posted in all of the housing units and all around the building. Your written fire evacuation plans were excellent. You have one AED in Booking and one in Control. Your fire inspection from the Hailey Fire Department was June 22, 2020 and no violations were noted. Fire Services of Idaho conducted an inspection on backflow on February 19, 2020, fire sprinklers in June of 2020, and kitchen hood on June 16. 2020. The facility passed on all three inspections.

Inmate Observation/Security Checks – In compliance with the standards IJS 07.02 The documentation on security checks was outstanding. The majority of your checks were right at 30 minutes or under. The standard has changed to every 60 minutes and your staff should be commended for keeping the checks at or below 30 minutes. Security Check finish logs cleared up one time that appeared to be over 60 minutes. The dates that were reviewed were August 8, 2020, September 7, 2020, October 31, 2020, November 20, 2020, and December 2, 2020.

There were no medical watches during the requested time but your policy on special watches is that suicide watches are conducted every 15 minutes on adults and every three minutes on juveniles. Medical watches are every 30 minutes. The activity of the inmate is logged every check.

Strip Searches and Body Cavity Searches – In compliance with the standards IJS 15.05 Your intake strip searches are done with and staff documents when a strip search is done. Your facility doesn’t do cross gender pat down searches except in absolute emergencies. You are doing unclothed body searches on anyone going into general population and those either coming back into the facility from the outside such as weekenders and work release. You also strip search the individuals coming from the court on a sentence. No strip searches are done in groups or are done on camera. Body cavity searches are done when there is and a warrant is obtained. Body cavity searches are only done by authorized medical persons. Transgender and intersex inmates are asked their search preference and sign that preference.

Health Care Services – In compliance with the standards IJS 11.01 IJS 11.03

Blaine County Sheriff’s Office FY2022 Budget Overview Page 62

IJS 11.10 IJS 11.12 IJS 11.13 I verified you have a written agreement with Ivy Medical to provide your medical care to the inmates. Capt. Davis explained you have a medical administrator during the week who is in direct contact with the Nurse Practitioner. The Nurse Practitioner holds clinics twice a week so, currently, you are having a provider clinic in place of the nurse’s clinic until nurses can be hired. There are also med passers provided twice a day to pass medication. Your policy is very detailed about 14-day health appraisals and Capt. Davis verified they are being done on time. Deputies screen medical kites for any emergencies and then they are passed on to medical where they are seen by the Medical Administrator and the Nurse Practitioner is contacted if anything is urgent or seems urgent. When the Nurse Practitioner comes in, she reviews them as well and creates her list of inmates to see her in the clinic that day. Emergencies do not require a medical kite and are taken care of immediately. In an emergency, Medical is contacted right away and their directions are followed. If they can come in on a callback and remedy the situation, they do. If not, they instruct the facility to call an ambulance and/or transport the inmate to the ER. If it is an obvious emergency, the facility calls the ambulance first and then Medical. Dental is available as needed. You take inmates out of the facility for dental treatment. Ivy Medical provides on-site mental health care and a clinic is held once a week by Mental Health Professional Services. A $20.00 medical fee is charged to the inmate for a doctor or dentist visit, $10.00 to see the nurse, and $5.00 for prescription meds. Inmates are not charged for mental health care if it is a PREA issue. Inmates are never refused medical care for inability to pay. All staff had suicide prevention training on June 19, 2020. Infectious disease training including Covid was held in 2020. Ivy Medical provides medical training to staff and Capt. Davis included Ivy Medical’s Covid-19 procedures for review.

Inmate Rights, Regarding Rape, Sexual Assault or Sexual Activity – In compliance with the standard IJS 12.03 Sgt. Jessi Peischl is your PREA Coordinator. You successfully completed an IPREA audit on June 3, 2019 Inmates are given a pamphlet at booking that explains PREA and it is posted in the housing units. It is available in Spanish and English. A verbal orientation at Booking is given to the inmate along with the pamphlet. A poster that is also posted in each housing unit. A video is played for them every Sunday morning. The deputies are current on their training about their responsibilities under Idaho Code 18-6110 which refers to sexual misconduct between deputies and inmates. They receive the training in their PREA training and sign an acknowledgement of the training.

Physical Facility – In compliance with the standard IJS 18.01
