Kittitas County Auditor - Agenda Staff Report <br />Prepared by: Brian Carlson, Budget and Finance Director <br />Agenda Date: May 17, 2022 <br />Topic: 2022 Sheriff’s Deputy Cost Rate <br /> <br />Action Requested: <br />Approve Resolution adopting the 2022 Sheriff cost per deputy rates <br /> <br />Summary: <br />• Pursuant to Federal regulations, and as a recipient of Federal grant awards, the County must calculate <br />and formally adopt hourly per-deputy rates for those grants that entail Deputy services. <br />• The County Sheriff also provides services via contract, which are billed pursuant to these adopted rates. <br />• This agenda item consists of a Resolution to authorize the rates for 2022. <br /> <br />Background: <br />• Rates are calculated using cost-recognition criteria required by Federal regulations <br />• Costs are expressed as hourly, per-deputy, and are derived from direct- and indirect-cost (overhead) <br />calculations. <br />• The County adopts different rates for Federal and non-Federal clients. Federal rates are lower, <br />reflecting fewer allowed costs. <br />• Rates are not required to be calculated annually, but staff is attempting to establish this as a regular <br />annual process. Rates were updated and adopted in 2021. <br />• The 2022 rates reflect a 7.5% increase, driven primarily by: <br />o Increased costs for Kitcom services <br />o Increased insurance premiums <br />o Additional costs for body- and vehicle-cams for new deputies <br />o Increased fuel and vehicle maintenance costs <br />• Proposed and prior-rates are: <br />Federal Non-Federal Federal Non-Federal <br />Regular 66.00$ 79.00$ 71.00$ 85.00$ <br />Overtime 99.00$ 119.00$ 107.00$ 128.00$ <br />2021 2022 <br /> <br />• Attachments (2): <br />o Resolution 2022 Cost Rate per Deputy <br />o 2022 Certificate of Cost Per Deputy UNSIGNED
