County Jail Reimbursement Program
Since 1991, the County Jail Reimbursement Program (CJRP) funding has grown fivefold. Communities spurred this growth by committing certain felony offenders -- such as drunk drivers and nonviolent, habitual offenders -- to jail instead of prison. Historically, the Office of Audit, Internal Affairs and Litigation administers the program. Since the passage of the statutory guidelines, this prison alternative has taken on special significance, and has required changes in the funding formula. CJRP reimburses for the following felony populations:

  • Except for G and H class offenders, straddle cell offenders with a prior record variable score of 35 or more points;

  • All presumptive prison cell offenders (the minimum/minimum exceeds 12 months);
The department will continue to monitor the new sentencing guideline's impact on local government, and, as needed, recommend changes in the funding formula.
