Siskiyou County CCP approves up to $10,000 annually to fund probation Staff Services Analyst II

Chief Probation Officer Erin Welch presented a request Oct. 13 for the Community Corrections Partnership (CCP) to support creation of a Staff Services Analyst II position in the Siskiyou County Probation Department. The committee agreed to fund the position jointly with the county General Fund and to allocate up to $10,000 annually from CCP grant funds.

The motion—"that the CCP support the establishment of a Staff Services Analyst II position within the Probation Department, to be funded jointly by the General Fund and a not to exceed $10,000.00 grant allocation annually from the CCP"—was moved by Kirk Andrus, Siskiyou County District Attorney, and seconded by Dr. Sarah Collard of the Siskiyou County Department of Human Services. The minutes record the vote as "all approved," and the motion carried. The minutes do not list a roll-call tally by individual member; attendees listed in the roll call were Dr. Sarah Collard, Kirk Andrus, James Randall (Under Sheriff, alternate for Sheriff Jeremiah LaRue), Renee Crane (Superior Court CAO), Erin Welch (Chief Probation Officer), Sergeant Frank Ward (Siskiyou County Sheriff, Day Reporting Center), and Stacey Jackson (Assistant Chief Probation Officer).

The committee did not specify a start date, salary range, or other implementation details for the new position in the minutes. Those details and any necessary budget adjustments beyond the stated not-to-exceed $10,000 annual CCP allocation were not specified in the record and would be subject to further action if required.

The committee adjourned at 12:38 p.m.
