Proposed Workload Budget
Adult Population Adjustments
Under existing law, the average daily inmate population is projected to increase from 173,993 in 2007-08 to 177,021 in 2008-09, an increase of 3,028 inmates, or 1.7 percent. This change is due primarily to the projected increase in the number of parole violators returned to prison because they committed a specific parole violation. This is partially offset by a small decline in new admissions from the court. The 2007 Budget Act assumed an average daily inmate population of 174,300. (See Figure DCR-01) Included within these totals is an average daily population of 6,935 inmates who are projected to be housed in out-of-state correctional facility beds.
Similarly, under existing law the average daily parole population is projected to increase from 129,343 in 2007-08 to 133,061 in 2008-09, an increase of 3,718 parolees, or 2.9 percent. The projected increase is due to fewer discharges from parole and more releases to parole from prison than expected. The 2007 Budget Act assumed an average daily parole population of 124,862.
The fiscal impact of these population changes in 2007-08 is an increase of $14 million General Fund and a reduction of $45,000 in other funds. In 2008-09, the fiscal impact is an increase of $77.2 million General Fund and a reduction of $459,000 other funds.
