No public or private agency or entity entering into a contract may itself employ any person who is a participant in continuous electronic monitoring surveillance.
(b) The county board of supervisors, the chief probation officer, and designees of the chief probation officer shall comply with Section 1090 of the Government Code in the consideration, making, and execution of contracts pursuant to this section.
