After executive session, the committee directed Hannah Witt to enter discussions with MGT Consulting to negotiate a juvenile detention daily rate; the motion was approved by the committee.
Following an executive session, the committee voted to authorize county staff to enter negotiations with the consulting firm MGT regarding the daily rate to house juveniles at the detention center.
The nut graf: committee members made a formal motion authorizing staff to proceed with discussions so the county can finalize a detention-rate structure for juvenile housing, which will inform contract negotiations and intergovernmental agreements.
The meeting minutes record a motion to have Hannah Witt move into discussions with MGT regarding a juvenile detention rate; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote after return from executive session. Earlier in the meeting, MGT staff had asked that any action on its report be deferred until after executive-session negotiations with the county.
Ending: Staff was authorized to proceed and to report back to the committee on negotiation outcomes; no rates or contract terms were disclosed in open session.
