District attorney's office adds attorney, requests workspace; cites rising caseload
Summary
The district attorney's office reported being fully staffed with a new attorney (Brent Radakin), requested remodeling of an old training office for workspace, and said caseloads have increased, prompting modest increases in travel and dues.
The district attorney's office reported recent staff changes, including the addition of a new attorney, and asked the court to accommodate workspace needs for the hire. The DA said the office has shifted staff roles—investigator and victim-witness coordinator duties changed hands—and that increased caseloads driven by shootings and other criminal matters have raised workload.
"Brent Radakin is now prosecuting all fancy misdemeanors," the DA said while describing staff reassignments and the need for a remodeled office for the new hire. The DA said he expected architectural work to be charged to a designated budget line and that timing issues had slowed the remodel; staff said the project remained on the books and would be advanced.
The office also noted modest increases for travel and dues associated with the new attorney. No formal action on space remodeling was taken in the morning session; staff said they would pursue architectural next steps.
