Dear Mayor Katnich:
SECTION 24251. SHERIFFS AND CLERKS;
OFFICES IN CITIES OF NOT LESS THAN
35,000 POPULATION
DAVID R. A/aOtRSON
At"evANT COUNT .YYMNTYTON
As we approach the budgeting process for FY 81-82, we are
investigating means of reducing the demand on County funds.
One of our areas of interest is in the elimination of State
Mandates, which are not funded by the State, and which do
not constitute a justifiable priority rating for continuation.
One of the Mandates which we would hope to have repealed
by legislation this year concerns Section 24251 of the Govern-
ment Code (see attached). We discussed the requirements of
this Section with both the Sher'Ff and the County Clerk and
found concurrence in the fact t, -at the benefits would not
justify the expenditure to create offices for these two
departments in the one qualifying city of our County, which
is Lodi. In fact, with our limited resources, it would result
in reducing those personnel in both the Sheriff's and the
County Clerk's Offices who Ore presently required to perform
County -wide duties. .
Therefore, we Mould appreciate the support of the Lodi City
Council in the elimination of this State Mandate.
Thank you for your consi.deratjon in this matter, and please
call on us if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
611 e
