During a recent government meeting, the committee approved an extension of a grant agreement with the Department of Justice to support the Wayne County Sexual Assault Kit Task Force. The amendment, which extends the agreement for another year until September 30, 2025, maintains the original funding amount of $1 million, with no county match required. The grant will fund three investigators from the prosecutor's office, one paralegal, one administrative assistant, and one site coordinator.

In another significant discussion, the committee addressed a retroactive amendment to a contract with Continental CAF, LLC, also known as Canteen Corrections, for commissary services in adult jails. The current contract, which is set to expire at the end of the month, has been in place while awaiting approval. The transition to a new service provider, Summit Food, is planned, with Summit set to take over both food and commissary services in the new jail. The committee confirmed that Summit is working on a plan to ensure a smooth handover of operations, including the potential transfer of some Canteen employees to maintain staffing levels.

Both motions were passed unanimously, reflecting the committee's commitment to supporting essential services in the community.
