5:04 pm
signed in late 2016 that will maintain the current rates which are 20 which are 34 percent less than what we were this proposed contract establishes the reduced rates and eliminates surcharges and reduces the cost of an average call by 34 this is 68 percent of our toll call volumes and reduces the regional in state calls by 41 percent that's another 24 percent of our call volumes the fcc has recently taken action this amendment shows the sheriff's department in support of reform for calling rates and as i mentioned it lowers the in
5:05 pm
state rates that is 92 percent of volume the announcements the third amendment we were operating up in june the cost of an average local calls $2 plus that come down to $1.54 for the regional interlot calls the average was 37 now, $1.98 and likewise our fourth street sets the interstate rates what is blow on this slide so for interstate collect calls caps at 250 our rates $1.10 and interstate prepaid fcc rate is one 10 and now, $1 this next
5:06 pm
slide shows quite a bit of data we've get rid of the surcharges and now have a permanent rate which reduces the cost of average calls and with lower costs we have increased volumes it allows people to be able to connect their loved ones with less cost and as a result of increased volume we executive the less cost the budget analyst has reflected that. >> thank you very much colleagues, any questions. >> supervisor tang. >> thank you i don't know if this came up during another contract amendment previously but i know that some other supervisors had spoken to their concerns about charging the cadets for calls i wonder if you can speak to that what the fcc
5:07 pm
released in terms of calling reform. >> there are a couple series sheriff vicki hennessey i think there are different kinds of calls made when cadets are arrested they have a free phone number and calling rates historically have been very high pause of the private destroy and we get a percentage that that comes into our use for the cadet program but and the fcc has traditionally as recently begun lowering it we're lower than any other county in the areas in terms of our phone calls and cadets we have credentially reduced those we need an infusion into the general fund money if we want to see this money recovered i want to talk about we're in the process of
5:08 pm
doing working on providing free phone numbers to parents to their children while they're no our custody through our one child program we have that and provide calls also cadets pro per get a number of free phone numbers provided through the court through are different things that happen. >> and then on average i don't know if you have this kind of data but i guess how often are calls made every year and . >> we have aggregate numbers but really what happens generally is cadets when in their out of their cells are allowed to use the phones at most of fats only the old sterile jail we don't have the ability and cadets are limited to 15 minutes each pause of the number of people so at
5:09 pm
the get 1 minutes and if more time they get back in line with another 15 minutes and sometimes there's none using the phones they can use the phone as much as and want. >> supervisor yee. >> i'm glad we're changing the rates because we've heard about the rate and how it is actually stopping inmates from making calls i'm glad we're reducing that i think you answered any question that is since we were going to get fewer revenues from this it would impact somewhere and the answer you need more general funds to offset the impact. >> at some point if the - we move to continue to reduce calls
5:10 pm
yes, we'll be looking at that we're okay now we budgeted for this we knew we know doing this in june so we - so i believe that it is not a big problem but if we reduce it further we'll are look at it in terms of supplementing. >> what's the impact less revenues for the general programming? >> yeah. we're getting one half a million dollars annually from this program. >> thanks. >> it goes into our inmate welfare fund can only be used for the penalty code. >> my preference is going into this direction where inmates
5:11 pm
actually can make phone numbers for less and not just have these inmates making phone calls offset. >> i understand i understand the desire to continue to move downward in the costs i understand that that's why when we came in january i started to look at it and made the decision to continue to reduce as we go along. >> appreciate it. >> thank you. >> okay. thank you sheriff. >> supervisor katie tang. >> one more question so this will be a month long contract or - i couldn't tell based on the document. >> it was month to month we were waiting for additional fcc rulings so we wait until we chiu knew what overseeing were and began this in june of this year we reduced the ratesthanasia then so at the rates that were
