H.B. 95-1215 Office and salary funding - counties' responsibilities based on annual population estimate - modification of allocation by county commissioners. Requires use of annual population estimates prepared by the division of planning in the state department of local affairs, instead of the decennial census population figures, to determine the proportion of the office expenses of district attorneys that counties must pay. Gives the boards of county commissioners in each judicial district the option of changing the statutory funding formula for the office expenses of district attorneys. Clarifies that local governments are not prohibited from funding programs, projects, personnel, or salaries in addition to the funding of the reasonable and necessary office expenses of district attorneys, if the relevant board of county commissioners agrees. Requires counties to pay a proportion of district attorneys' salaries based on population estimates rather than the number of cases filed in the judicial district.
