BACKGROUND: The Kittitas County Sheriff currently bills outside agencies and other organizations for the cost of law enforcement services. The Sheriff has developed a plan in accordance with the United States Office of Management & Budget, 2 CFR Part 200, Uniform Administration Requirements, Cost Principles and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance), for the billing rate for the Cost of a Deputy, and; The rate was established using the 2021 Budget (not actuals). The calculation is divided into two rates, non-federal and federal. The calculated rates are: Regular hours non-federal $75.00 Overtime hours non-federal $112.00 Regular hours federal $61.00 Overtime hours federal $92.00   The County Auditor has certified the Cost Allocation Plan at the above rates. The last plan that was adopted was in 2017 with the rates of Regular hours non-federal $63.00 Overtime hours non-federal $94.00 Regular hours federal $54.00 Overtime hours federal $82.00 This represents a 16% increase on the regular hours rate from the last adopted plan. If the plans for 2018, 2019 and 2020 had been completed, we are estimating the regular hours rates would have increased 6% per year, resulting in a 6% increase for 2021.
