Title
Changes to the Division of Corrections Staffing Table.
Body
Recommended Action: Approve the changes to the Corrections staffing table as outlined below, effective January 1, 2017.
(1) The Division of Corrections requests approval to change the status of position number 20002610 from part-time (0.50 FTE) to a full-time benefitted position (1.0 FTE).

Alternatives: (1) Reject the request, which may lead to increased overtime due to staff turnover and which could lead to non-compliance with grant conditions.
Financial Considerations:
(1) No County tax dollars will be used. The Juvenile Intake and Assessment Center is funded 100% through a grant from the Kansas Department of Corrections. Grant funding is available within 33012-253 to cover current year personnel costs of $30,517.
(2) Total budgeted cost for the 4 positions is $393,097 in 2017. Currently, 1.6 FTE are in...
