7. DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
In 2011, the Public Safety Realignment Act/AB 109 transferred the responsibility for managing
and supervising adult felon offenders from the California Department of Corrections and
Rehabilitation to each county under the PRCS program. AB 109 helps mitigate the impact of longer
sentences and is an alternative frequently used to transition inmates back into the community.
Inmates eligible for release to local jurisdictions for supervision under PRCS must be:
• Currently incarcerated for non - violent and non - serious offenses
• Released on parole and non - revocable parole
• Are not high -risk sex offenders
It is estimated that 2,770 offenders are supervised in Orange County. The Police Department is
working closely with Orange County Probation to help manage these offenders. Orange County
Probation has offered their support with both personnel and financial resources. The objective is
to closely monitor these individuals by conducting sweeps during FY18. The allocation of
$21,004.11 will reimburse overtime costs for services provided to the County.
