Motion to Approve Revised Fee Schedule for CSRA Probation Contract (Originally Approved by
Commission on December 19, 2017)
Department:Superior Court
Presenter:Shaun Brooks, Trial Court Administrator
Caption:Motion to Approve Revised Fee Schedule for CSRA
Probation Contract. (Originally Approved by Commission on
December 19, 2017)
Background:After the current agreement with CSRA Probation Services,
Inc. was approved by Commission on December 19, 2017, it was
brought to my attention by CSRA Probation that they had recently
renegotiated a few of its daily, electronic monitoring rates. As a
result, the daily rates charged directly to the probationers came
down. These revised, lower rates have been in effect since
January 1, 2018; however, based on the agreement, any
amendment must be formally approved by all parties. Please see
attached documentation.
Analysis:
Financial Impact:The cost of these probation services is paid for by the persons
placed on probation by the Superior Court Judges. ***The
attached, revised fee schedule, which reflects a reduction in daily
monitoring rates, has been in effect since January 1, 2018;
however, any change to such items does require formal approval
of all parties, per the terms of the original agreement.

Recommendation:Approve
