State’s Attorney Automation Fund

The Committee is expected to consider authorizing the creation of a State’s Attorney Records Automation Fund with an emergency appropriation to the Fiscal Year 2012 Budget.

This fund, according to the resolution to be considered authorizing the creation of the fund, is to offset the expenses of the State’s Attorney’s office in establishing and maintaining automated record keeping systems.

Funding will be derived from a $2 fee to be paid by a defendant on a judgment of guilty or a grant of supervision for a violation of any provision of the Illinois Vehicle Code or any felony, misdemeanor, or petty offense. This will be set aside in a separate fund handled by the County Treasurer.

Expenditures from the fund are to be made by the State’s Attorney for hardware, software, research, and development costs and personnel related to the offenses.

The fund is to be established effective July 1, 2012 and will be known as the State’s Attorney Records Automation Fund. This fund is authorized by Public Act 97-673 of the Illinois State Statutes.

Pay For Performance Guidelines

An amount of 2.5% is set aside as a pool of money for approved pay-for-performance increases. These dollars cannot be used for any other purpose without County Board approval.

A resolution is being presented for Committee consideration establishing guidelines for this fiscal year pay-for-performance adjustments. This is for the distribution of the 2.5% merit pay adjustment included in the 2013 budget. It is to be distributed to all non-represented full and part-time employees who have not received reclassification or other salary adjustments in the FY2012.2013 Budget Process.
