9 County’s proposal • Staffing is based on anticipated 70% courtroom usage and a series of fixed posts; uses a relief factor of 1.22. • Reduces some Bailiffs positions to transition to Armed Deputies. • Allows for at least one armed Law Enforcement Officer and one Bailiff in each high risk courtroom while in session, and one Bailiff in all other courtrooms while in session. The high risk courtrooms are Criminal, First Appearance, Domestic Violence and Family. • Three armed deputies are included for fixed posts at each Regional Courthouse. • Increase the number of Armed Deputies by 100%, from 29 (original number) to 58. • Increase the number of Department of Detention personnel by 14 to support the holding cell areas in the New Tower. • The County provides additional contract security services on a 24/7 basis at the Courthouse complex, and also at Regional Courthouses during operating hours. This additional security allows BSO to focus on the building's internal security needs. Broward County • 2018 Budget Workshop • August 31, 2017
