The transfer would change which personnel accounts cover already incurred overtime costs for the county jail and Sheriff’s Office. It moves money out of hourly pay accounts and into overtime accounts. The document describes a reallocation within the personnel budget, not an additional appropriation.

|---|---|---|
| Jail | $41,712 | $41,712 |
