Units 5930/5940, $35,547. (Probation and Court Services)  
Member Yoo asked why there is an additional appropriation to the MICAP fund and why  
there are additional funds from the Probation Services fund. She asked if they were  
related? Tim McGavin responded that the dollar amount in the Probation Services fund  
is interest income. According to state statute, this may be transferred over to the General  
fund. As far as the funds from MICAP and Drug Court, Mr. McGavin explained that  
these were closed and moved into the General fund and that this transfer is simply the  
final movement of those funds.

significant portion of the requested budget for each of these accounts was put in the
