Program Enhancements and Other Budget Adjustments
Ward/Parolee Population/Caseload Changes


CURRENT YEAR
For 2006-07, the May Revision estimate for the year-end juvenile institution population is 2,450, a decrease of 180 wards from the projection in the Governor's Budget. This decrease is primarily due to fewer juvenile court first admissions. In addition, the year-end juvenile parole population is projected to be 2,765, a decrease of 10 parolees from the Governor's Budget projection. Despite the ward and parolee population decline, an additional $1.2 million is requested to address cadet training costs at the R.A. McGee Correctional Training Center and to meet the staffing ratios necessary to maintain compliance with the court orders issued in the Farrell v. Allen lawsuit.

General Fund expenditures for juvenile institutions are partially offset by General Fund revenues from the sliding scale fees paid by counties. In 2006-07, these revenues are estimated to be $16.2 million, a decrease of $568,000 from the revenue expected at the time of the Governor's Budget.


BUDGET YEAR
For 2007-08, the year-end juvenile institution population is projected to be 2,340, a decrease of 150 wards from the projection included in the Governor's Budget. This decrease is primarily due to fewer juvenile court first admissions. Additionally, the year-end juvenile parole population is estimated to be 2,385, a decrease of 20 parolees since the Governor's Budget estimates. The effect of these population changes is decreased costs to the General Fund of $2.5 million, which reflects the closure of one Division of Juvenile Justice (DJJ) facility.

In 2007-08, the sliding scale fees paid by counties are estimated to be $15 million, a decrease of $807,000 compared to the revenue expected at the time of the Governor's Budget.
