services at the pleasure of board in 2007 when i became clerk of board the economy was in recession he determined at this point that lafco had a massing one million dollars carried forward i worked with lafco they've agreed agreed and the board of supervisors agreed that the lafco instead of proofing more dollars would conduct a general lafco business under this agreement lafco retired the reporter for primaries in the future if approved by the board fast forward the chair is reaching it's end life in 2007 the board requested that lafco take on additional roles of the project

so do to they asked for clerking assistance when the board of supervisors authorize via motion and memorandum of understanding was created between the puc and the lafco for the ability to utilize costs not to exceed $2.1 million for a virus role for the puc implementation of cca provide are 7 slides i don't intend to review only the first 4 for the clerking support the remain 3 slides provide the current general fund carried forward and the puc carried forward on slide 2 the versus actual in 2008 the board approved the motion authorizing the clerk for additional

administrative assistance for the additional support in corneas with the agreement my office charges lafco a $27 million support of costs and half time clerk is about $72,000 a logical and the board agreed to the arrangement that was the exception for the advisors role the frequency of the lafco meetings and the workload due to the sires will increase 3r5ish8 instead of him or her new staff they absorbed the duty and fin they moved the friendly benefits cost from the general fund to the logical carried forward-looking back we understand it never materialize as you can see on table on slide

2 through the clerking services will lower the actual costs of the services are much higher than 20 thousand and supervisor breed you've identified a structural issue that needs correcting it currently charges more staff time to lafco than is utilized or needed so since lafco general fund carried forward will be decompleted we'll recommend did half time clerk will be moved back to the general fund. >> supervisor breed. >> can you explain that because i think that i'm a little bit confused by the statement. >> the statement that it is paying for more than it is using. >> thank you, madam president the halftime salary the entire

salary oozed used to be paid for by the general fund when the cca advisors fund lafco for clerking services ramp containing new staff we absorbed those staff and rather than continuing to have ism of them pick up the lafco and board allowed them to pay for the other halftime similarly for that staff you started did conversation and appreciate you're asking the important questions if no other questions i'll move to the staff and clerking services provided by the office through the chair. >> oh, sorry linda there's a difference of 61 thousand dollars for actual to the budget for the halftime per year.

>> that's correct as far as the information that is on the slide i will be a little bit more forthcoming we engaged in a conversation with the lafco clerk that indicated it is actually more than that in terms of the the hours utilizes. >> the follow-up question is mined is lafco paid the $71,000 anticipating halftime employee who has that money. >> in terms of the staff who are currently hired in my office. >> i was wondering it went through a certain budget line item. >> the lafco is a line item in our budget so it is in the

budget for the board of supervisors lafco - and the board. >> in the clerk of the boards budget that's correct so it is currently a line item in our budget. >> understood okay. >> hi the lafco carried forward is off budget it was bucked in the prior fiscal year the funds are in the reflected in the we are talking about the clerk of the board has a division within the board of supervisors the hours clerk of the board the logical has it's on separate index soda code those are not coming into our office we charge those expenditures separately and it is throughout the year to cover the costs. >> basically move the expenditures from the side to

lafco kinder forward because the clerks funds are supporting the sore the assistant clerk we moved those expenditures quarterly. >> from the clerk to the lafco carried forward. >> yes. >> if i may i first time to say the clerk work is good but the difference i'm wondering i guess to put to blueprintly are we anticipating to get that back? >> i think that is a lafco question the answer is no when we bring the budget every year this predates mr. frooedz time although he was hired in 2009 we authorized two positions to

lafco we'll give back to the general fund our entire budget we don't get that back that's a conscious decision we made during we had a surplus figuring out what our budget needs were and glen eagle golf course back to the general fund that came from the general fund originally so it wasn't as if it was anything not known so to speak so once now our surplus with you we don't have the available fund now we're staurl a partial general fund charge and so i think that is the question now we're dealing with what should be our budget going forward. >> so i'd like to ask a followup question so monies have not been because in this
