Recommendation Concerning the Professional Services Agreement for Adult Post-Adjudicatory Drug Court in Escambia County, Florida - Catherine A. White, Director of Case Management

That the Board take the following action concerning the Professional Services Agreement between First Judicial Circuit Court Administration and the Escambia County Board of County Commissioners, regarding the housing of adult post-adjudicatory drug court participants at the Community Corrections Work Release Facility:

A. Approve the Agreement between First Judicial Circuit Court Administration and the Escambia County Board of County Commissioners for the housing of adult post-adjudicatory drug court participants at the Community Corrections Work Release Facility; and

[Funding: This Agreement is a Revenue Agreement related to Fund 114, Misdemeanor Probation, Revenue Account 349003.]

BACKGROUND:

The Work Release Program facility has been housing male and female offenders via Drug Court referrals since 2011. These offenders are usually housed from one to 30-plus days, as determined by the Court. The Work Release Program facility supports the program through the availability of dormitory style housing for adult post-adjudicatory drug court participants. Fees are determined on a per-day basis and include the room and board for each offender. It is the desire of the First Judicial Circuit Court Administration to formalize this relationship with a Professional Services Agreement regarding the housing of adult post-adjudicatory drug court participants in the Escambia County Work Release Program facility.

BUDGETARY IMPACT:

The County agrees to provide the services for the Escambia County drug court participants at the Community Corrections Work Release Facility; whereas the Court agrees to reimburse the County for housing of the Escambia County drug court participants as outlined in Exhibit A of the Agreement.
