Examples of actual cost contracts for the ongoing, recurring provision of materiels and/or services might be a city contracting with the County for communications equipment repair or waste disposal at a County landfill. V. PAYMENT DUE DATES Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections II and III above, payment due date shall be at least invoice date plus 30 days. If the County is late in issuing an invoice, the contracting entity would always have at least invoice date plus 30 days to pay. If the County is early in issuing an invoice, the contracting entity would still have a payment due date of either 60 days after the beginning of the quarter (quarterly invoices) or 30 days after the beginning of the service month (monthly invoices). (EXAMPLES: An invoice for October service, dated and issued October 8 (late) would have a payment due date of November 7. An invoice for August service, dated and issued July 20 (early) would have a payment due date of August 30.) Page 2 of 4 0 VI. LATE CHARGES 0 The late payment of any invoiced amount by a contracting entity will cause the County to incur costs not contemplated by the County/contracting entity agreement, the exact amount of such cost will be extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but are not limited to, costs such as administrative follow-up and processing of delinquent notices, increased accounting costs, etc. Late charges will be assessed in the following situations: — Over-the-counter payments will be assessed a late charge if any payment is not received by the County by the payment due date. — Payments transmitted to the County via the U.S. Mail that have the payor's postage meter mark will be assessed a late charge if any payment is not received by the County by the payment due date plus one day. — Payments transmitted to the County via the U.S. Mail that have a U.S. Post Office postmark dated after the payment due date will be assessed a late charge. The late charge assessed in each of these situations shall be three-quarters of one percent (0.75%) of the payment due and unpaid plus $100.00 for late payments made within 30 days of the payment due date. An additional charge of three-quarters of one percent (0.75%) of said payment shall be added for each additional 30 -day period that the payment remains unpaid. Late charges shall be added to the payment and invoiced to the contracting entity in accordance with this policy. VII. COLLECTIONS Any invoice remaining unpaid 90 days after the invoice date shall be referred to the Auditor - Controller for subsequent collection action, such as deduction from contracting entity monies on deposit with the County Treasurer in accordance with Government Code Section 907 and any other applicable provision of law. Non-payment of invoices and applicable late charges will constitute a breach of contract for which the County retains all legal remedies including termination of the contract. VIII. DISCOUNT FOR EARLY PAYMENT Any payment received by the County from a contracting entity 20 days or more before the payment due date shall be entitled to a discount of one-quarter of one percent (0.25%). If the contracting entity takes a discount, and the payment is received by the County less than 20 days before the payment due date, County staff shall immediately notify the contracting entity by telephone that the discount should not have been taken and that the balance is due by the original payment due date. If the balance is not received by the County in accordance with the dates as specified in Section VII, applicable late charges shall be calculated on the balance due. Page 3 of 4 U IX. DEFERRED REVENUE 0 At fiscal year end, any portion of revenue invoiced (not necessarily received) during the fiscal year being closed out that represents charges or prepayment for materiels and/or services for the upcoming fiscal year shall be reclassified from a revenue account to a deferred revenue account (liability). In the new fiscal year the deferred revenue shall be reclassified to a revenue account. (EXAMPLE: On June 1, 19X1, a city is invoiced $48,000 which represents charges for the 12 -month period June 1, 19X1 to May 31, 19X2. The amount to be reclassified to deferred revenue would be $44,000, representing 11/12ths of the total amount. In July 19X1, the $44,000 would be reclassified to revenue.) Reclassification entries shall be made by Auditor -Controller Agency Accounting units, or for those agencies/departments/districts without such a unit, the agency/department/district shall notify the Auditor -Controller of the amounts to be reclassified. X. COST RECOVERY All County agencies/department/districts shall include all costs of providing contracted services in contract rates. Including all direct costs, allocated indirect costs such as departmental and County (CWCAP) overhead, and cost of capital financing. XI. EXISTING CONTRACTS Billing terms and provisions contained in existing contracting entity agreements (existing as of the date this policy is approved by the Board of Supervisors) shall remain in effect for the life of the contract. However, when these existing contracts are renegotiated, they shall contain the billing provisions as set forth in this policy. XII. DEVIATIONS FROM POLICY Deviations from this policy shall be approved by the Board of Supervisors. Proposed deviations by agencies/departments/districts shall be submitted to the CEO for concurrence in advance of filing an Agenda Item Transmittal (AIT) with the Clerk of the Board. The CEO, or his/her designee, shall advise the agency/department/district of approval or disapproval of the proposed deviations. If a County agency/department/district submits a contract to the Board of Supervisors for approval, and the billing provisions in the contract deviate from this policy, the agency/department/district shall specifically advise the Board of Supervisors in the AIT of the deviation, the reason for the deviation, and of the CEO's recommendation relative thereto. Page 4 of 4 ATTACHMENT C POLICY FOR DISTRIBUTION OF FORFEITED AND SEIZED ASSETS BACKGROUND The Orange County Sheriff's Department provides contract law enforcement services to cities in Orange County. Because of the increased likelihood that contracted patrol or investigation personnel may become involved in significant narcotic seizures, which could affect law enforcement services provided by the Sheriffs Department to contract cities, the following policy is in effect. NON-RNSP CONTRACTED PATROL AND INVESTIGATION OFFICERS When assets (cash or property) are seized in CITY by contracted patrol or investigation personnel other than RNSP personnel, and subsequently forfeited to COUNTY, the forfeited assets shall be shared with CITY as set forth below, for the purpose of augmenting law enforcement services in CITY, subject to approval by the forfeiting agency (U.S. Attorney or State) of such sharing and use of forfeited assets. A portion of forfeited assets may be retained by COUNTY's Sheriff Department, hereinafter referred to as "SHERIFF", to pay for departmental expenses not recovered through law enforcement contracts. In such cases, SHERIFF shall apply to the forfeiting agency for the return of a share of the assets to COUNTY. In his application, SHERIFF shall specify the percentage of shared assets returned to COUNTY that will be used to augment law enforcement services in CITY and the use of said assets by CITY. In those cases in which assets are seized within CITY by non-RNSP personnel assigned to CITY pursuant to this Agreement, without the involvement of other law enforcement personnel, and in which the seizure is a result solely of activities self -initiated by non-RNSP SHERIFF personnel assigned to CITY or initiated by said personnel in response to calls for service within CITY, SHERIFF shall apply to have all of the assets used to augment CITY law enforcement services. In those cases in which non-RNSP SHERIFF personnel assigned to CITY pursuant to this Agreement play an ancillary role in a seizure or in which other law enforcement personnel are involved in a seizure, SHERIFF shall determine the percentage of the total forfeited assets for which he will apply to augment CITY's law enforcement services. This determination will be based on the circumstances of the seizure, including the pro -rata involvement of all personnel, including those assigned to CITY. Each seizure will be evaluated on an individual and independent basis, and said evaluations will be available for review to CITY's manager. Examples of those incidents which would be evaluated as set forth in this section include situations in which a contract patrol deputy provides uniformed backup at a SHERIFF's Narcotic Bureau search warrant location or in which contract investigators participate in the service of a search warrant that was initiated by non -contract law enforcement personnel. Page 1 of 2 0 0 NON-RNSP CONTRACTED PATROL AND INVESTIGATION OFFICERS (Continued) Assets (cash or property) that are returned to COUNTY by the forfeiting agency with the understanding that they will be used to augment CITY law enforcement services shall be used by CITY and COUNTY only for such purposes. If the forfeiting agency attaches additional or more specific conditions to the use of said assets, CITY and COUNTY shall also abide by those conditions. SHERIFF and CITY's manager shall determine the specific use of said assets within the conditions imposed by the forfeiting agency. Subject to conditions imposed by the forfeiting agency and to the requirement that forfeited assets be used to augment law enforcement services, COUNTY shall place forfeited cash, or cash from the sale of forfeited assets in the interest-bearing account (Agency 139) for use in CITY in compliance with the forfeiting agency's regulations. 2. CONTRACTED REGIONAL NARCOTICS SUPPRESSION PROGRAM (RNSP) OFFICERS Assets forfeited as a result of activities conducted by contracted RNSP officers will be used to augment CITY's law enforcement services. Because activities of this type result from the efforts of both contracted officers and other RNSP officers, the percentage of sharing will be determined pursuant to the RNSP Memorandum of Understanding in effect at the time of the seizure. Said Memorandum of Understanding provides that assets are distributed according to percentage amounts based on the number of sworn personnel participating in the RNSP at the time of the seizure. The number of personnel in RNSP, as well as the number of participating agencies in RNSP, may fluctuate during the course of a contract year, thereby affecting the percentage amounts distributed to participating agencies. The percentage amounts distributed to participating agencies may also be affected by action taken by the RNSP Executive Board. CITY will use RNSP forfeited assets only to augment CITY's law enforcement services. If the forfeiting agency or applicable RNSP Memorandum of Understanding attaches any additional or more specific conditions on the use of said assets, CITY shall abide by those conditions. SHERIFF and CITY's manager shall determine the specific use of said assets within the conditions imposed by the forfeiting agency and the RNSP Memorandum of Understanding. Subject to conditions imposed by the forfeiting agency and the RNSP Memorandum of Understanding and to the requirement that RNSP forfeited assets be used to augment law enforcement services, COUNTY shall place forfeited cash or cash from the sale of forfeited assets in the interest-bearing account (Agency 139) for use in CITY in compliance with the forfeiting agency's regulations and the RNSP Memorandum of Understanding.
