County staff reported personnel activity and a small incentive request before the council and secured funding for radio equipment tied to the Mahogany tower upgrade.
Hua (Speaker 13) told the council there were 46 positions listed in the prior two weeks, one incentive plan request of $1,000 from the district attorney's office for a major-crimes-unit subject-matter attorney, and six reclassifications (five incumbents, one vacancy). Hua said any associated costs would be covered by the respective organizations and no additional countywide funds were required.
On the Mahogany radio tower upgrade, Hua said Public Works asked to reallocate about $107,000 from a capital-dedicated fund balance to purchase P25-compatible radio units. Councilmembers asked whether the funds were from an emergency fund or capital fund and staff confirmed it was a capital-dedicated fund balance. The council approved the request unanimously (motion by Stringham; second by Johnson).
