Beginning in the fiscal year after a pilot project has been implemented pursuant
to KRS 196.731, fifty percent (50%) of any state expenditures that are avoided
as calculated in KRS 196.731 shall be deposited by the department in the
community corrections fund, which shall be a separate, interest-bearing
account within the State Treasury. The remaining fifty percent (50%) shall be
deposited in the general fund. Amounts deposited in the community corrections
fund, including interest, are hereby appropriated to the commission for the
following purposes:
(a) Fifty percent (50%) to the community corrections program responsible for
those savings; and
(b) Fifty percent (50%) to the Division of Probation and Parole.
Notwithstanding KRS 45.229, any moneys remaining in the community
corrections fund at the close of the fiscal year shall not lapse but shall carry
forward into the next fiscal year to be used for the purposes outlined in this
subsection.
None of the calculated savings shall be appropriated to the commission for
distribution if:
(a) In a pilot project developed pursuant to KRS 196.731(1)(a), there is an
increase in the percentage of targeted offenders on probation who are
convicted of a new felony offense and sentenced to a term of
imprisonment; or
(b) In a pilot project developed pursuant to KRS 196.731(1)(b), there is an
increase in the percentage of supervised individuals who are convicted of
a new felony offense.
The moneys appropriated pursuant to this section shall be used to supplement,
not supplant, any other state or county appropriations for probation, parole or
other post-prison supervision services, or community corrections programs.
Moneys received through appropriations pursuant to this section and KRS
196.731 shall be used for the following purposes:
(a) Implementing evidence-based practices;
(b) Creating, increasing, or improving the availability of risk reduction and
treatment programs and interventions, including substance abuse
treatment programs, for supervised individuals;
(c) Paying the costs of global positioning monitoring system for offenders of
at least medium risk; and
(d) Increasing the number of probation and parole staff, including equipment
and office space the officers and staff may need.
