Program Authorization: R.S. 15:821-840.2; R.S. 36:401-409; and R.S. 39:1800.1-1800.7

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

The mission of the Administration Program is to properly account for the direct costs incurred by the state in operating the facility.

The goals of the Administration Program are:

1. Protect the state's investment by paying the cost of the Risk Management premiums for the buildings and contents.
2. Provide the necessary funds for major repairs at the facility to protect the infrastructure.
3. Ensure accurate time computation as required by statute.

The Administration Program includes the warden, institution business office, and American Correctional Association (ACA) accreditation reporting efforts.

OBJECTIVES AND PERFORMANCE INDICATORS

Unless otherwise indicated, all objectives are to be accomplished during or by the end of FY 1999-2000. Performance indictors are made up of two parts: name and value. The indicator name describes what is being measured. The indicator value is the numeric value or level achieved within a given measurement period. For budgeting purposes, performance indicator values are shown for the prior fiscal year, the current fiscal year, and alternative funding scenarios (continuation budget level and Executive Budget recommendation level) for the ensuing fiscal year (the fiscal year of the budget document).

RESOURCE ALLOCATION FOR THE PROGRAM

SOURCE OF FUNDING

This program is funded entirely with State General Fund.

ANALYSIS OF RECOMMENDATION

The total means of financing for this program is recommended at 209.6% of the existing operating budget. It represents 115.7% of the total request ($247,120) for this program. The increase in the recommended level is primarily attributed to the funding of major repairs and the increase in the Risk Management premiums.
