slide7On the Consent agenda yesterday the Board of Supervisors approved a Memorandum of Understanding or MOU for the Amador County Sheriff’s Office to continue providing services to the Amador County Superior Court. The Amador County Sheriff’s Office has provided security and bailiff services to the Amador Superior Court for a number of years now based on an interim agreement that the Board approved several years ago. The Sheriff’s Office and the Superior Court have negotiated a revised MOU for the provision of the security and bailiff services.
slide9 The MOU specifies the level of court security services provided by the Sheriff’s Office, the cost of the services and the payment for such services. The MOU defines the Sheriff’s Office scopes of services as continuing to staff the weapons checkpoint before entering the main courthouse, staff the separate screening at the other court chambers next door, as well as conduct perimeter checks among some of the duties mentioned. The agreement also anticipates the move from Court Street to the John C. Begovich Building at 500 Argonaut Lane. Under the agreement the Court must consider all recommendations made by the Sheriff for addressing additional security needs or concerns. The MOU also spells out that the Court has agreed to pay the Sheriff’s Office “for the allowable costs for the court security personnel services provided.” The Board unanimously approved the MOU continuing the tradition that Court security is provided by the Sheriff’s Office.
