Megan Lewis, corrections director, presented statistics for juvenile services and adult services for fiscal year 2025. Juvenile intake and assessment totaled 201 intakes for FY25; 48 of those were juvenile-offense intakes with 44% (21 of 48) identified in the fourth quarter as new arrests, and 90% of juveniles were not reoffending across the reporting period, Lewis said. Lewis reported the juvenile intensive supervision program had a 90% success rate and that staff administered 32 cognitive behavioral intervention tools in FY25. Staff compliance and timeliness metrics were presented: 86% of YLS (Youth Level of Service) entries were entered within 5 business days; 83% compliance with case-plan audits addressing moderate and high risk needs.

For adult services, Lewis reported a 65% success rate for supervision terminations: 82 of 126 individuals terminated successfully, with a 35% revocation rate. Adult-services staff completed a new agency-wide case-plan training run by the Kansas Department of Corrections, introduced a moved evening for a cognitive class to improve attendance, and reported 1,051 kudos cards distributed to clients to increase positive reinforcement ratios.

Lewis asked commissioners to approve the KDOC FY25 juvenile services and adult services year-end outcome reports; commissioners moved and seconded each approval and recorded \"Aye\" votes; the transcript shows the chair then signed the documents.

Lewis also asked the commission to approve an amendment extending the county's contract with Kansas State University to provide an external evaluation for the county's recovery-court program through the extended BJA grant period ending March 31 (year in transcript). Jacob Hansen, interim county counselor, told commissioners the agreement had been reviewed by counsel and recommended for approval. The commission moved, seconded and approved the extension; the transcript records \"Aye\" votes and the chair signing the approval.

The transcript does not list individual commissioner roll-call votes or provide dollar amounts for the KSU contract in the public discussion. Commissioners approved the outcome reports and the extension by motion.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","7/28/2025 Riley County Commission Meeting","oneSentenceSummary","Commissioners approved KDOC FY25 year-end outcome reports for juvenile and adult services and extended the county's evaluation contract with Kansas State University tied to a BJA recovery court grant.","taxTitle","Riley, Kansas","taxId",4218,"location","Kansas","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6503711,"Riley County Health Department gets approval for staff travel and to join Kansas debt-setoff program",307,1783000,2090000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5487154-c5cd11b16c5ae427cee50ff36c2cd8cc&start=1783&end=2090","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5487154-c5cd11b16c5ae427cee50ff36c2cd8cc/thumbnail_1783000.jpg","/articles/6503711/Kansas/Riley-County-Health-Department-gets-approval-for-staff-travel-and-to-join-Kansas-debt-setoff-program","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6503711-98ffb51f27e1b4594c31ad9fb7129ab9/orig.mp4?Expires=1775478152&Signature=lCejDlAJp6Eq3ewXezIbJk~9-BOWl8ArfWGHewLK0keKwOo-jwUkOC3ZMvqoAdTs3L~pEAAE7TWkmMY8~eeldLCM37c743G7~YSRtL7SIqS4JGlLwBX2KDgaUsjWEchXHY10pVqoyiOS5EP3LGBgInCGe9vAXS8xUdtp9jIxmyNT4yGMHADzL6k5kax0NKuIQa6YOCeXuWaxQURfEMpl0xxJHMI~nWzvl~WdZ~wEF7OS1GA8EOBWOQjJHMLxiMSvwI83-dgqBqBBaS2FA~5uQMAQvmYRpSYEKTgLCxHKdTBITtXz18xU9Pm3q3CBL21M3M0rvyFO0wprbN0RNXZbJA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Riley County commissioners granted the health department multiple out-of-state travel requests and authorized the county to join the Kansas debt-setoff program to help collect unpaid health-department bills.

Diane Creek, who presented on behalf of the health department, asked commissioners to approve travel for Danae Jones to attend the National Association for the Education of Young Children annual conference in Orlando in November; and for Chelsea Van Horn (outreach coordinator) and Jenny (Ginny) Ebert (opioid education and prevention specialist) to attend the Safe Kids prevention conference in October at National Harbor, Maryland. Creek said employees who attend national conferences will be expected to share materials and briefings with other county staff after returning.

Commissioners moved and seconded the travel approvals; the transcript records \"Aye\" votes and the chair signing the approvals.

Creek also asked the commission to approve the health department's enrollment in the Kansas debt-setoff program. She said the program allows the health department to submit unpaid bills to the state; if a resident has a state income-tax refund, lottery winnings, homestead tax refund or similar receivable, the state can apply those funds to pay the county debt. Creek said the county will begin by applying the program to childcare licensing and possibly the clinic, and that exceptions and payment plans will remain available.

Commissioners voted to enter the debt-setoff agreement; Creek and county staff discussed that distributions from the debt-setoff program may depend on how many agencies statewide participate and that Kansas retains a percentage of collected amounts. The transcript records the motion carried and the chair signed the paperwork.

Creek also noted a policy that conference attendees must share materials with other county programs and sign them to a shared drive for internal training.

The transcript does not record specific dollar estimates of expected recoveries, and Creek said debt-setoff revenue has not been a large source at prior workplaces, but the department sees it as an additional collection tool.","The county health department received commissioner approval for three staff to attend national conferences and to sign up for the Kansas debt-setoff program to pursue unpaid client bills.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":93,"_47":94,"_49":95,"_51":96,"_53":97,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":98,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":99,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6503716,"Riley County to seek public input on designated growth-area updates; comprehensive-plan workshop Aug. 5",943,3905000,4848000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5487154-c5cd11b16c5ae427cee50ff36c2cd8cc&start=3905&end=4848","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5487154-c5cd11b16c5ae427cee50ff36c2cd8cc/thumbnail_3905000.jpg","/articles/6503716/Kansas/Riley-County-to-seek-public-input-on-designated-growth-area-updates-comprehensive-plan-workshop-Aug-5","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6503716-b54209e6b92b86c30e0285cef0eb2194/orig.mp4?Expires=1775478152&Signature=bIPewdABimJy42pHvAWef3xS~A4TjAwtxIG-I-wF6MPySvSuhmzJ1fR4svmKH1Rked3z563JmpUHFbAroQgb6Hux2m8k761wQmQ1FwFHx5OpSKqdm~GPLtl3FfkYEV3q4N0qltL06kjsWE1MX9vLaSVlKb6rr2-7B8UV-4GJfLrt0jopNQ8vtZA14AZGMQUJRgUxEowP34zk2loXZqjHy8dQ~~PJGFcn0VswvGiTR~-hg~hmrIsp~ISaYFDjgHsFpw4RZpYsR1db4n87rLach82ki-OZekJsu6GG5Kvnt4csopyDlvw-3NerfXvzyedwfW2uRxk9CLTxQzZysAuo~w__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Riley County planning staff told commissioners they will host a community workshop next Tuesday, Aug. 5, to gather public input on draft goals and proposed changes to the county's designated growth areas (DGAs) as part of a comprehensive-plan update.

Amanda Webb, Riley County planning director, said Stantec, the county's consultant, will present draft goals grouped into six topic areas and will run staffed stations for each subject so residents can review and comment. Webb said the Manhattan urban-area and the city’s own plan already identify growth areas the county intends to \"match\" in the county plan, and that other DGAs around smaller cities — Leonardville, Riley, Randolph and Ogden — will remain as those cities have approved them.

Webb said the county is evaluating a strategic expansion of the DGA around the lake area because current boundaries are \"too restricted\" given existing development patterns and infrastructure. She listed the factors the county will weigh when evaluating DGA expansions — soils, slopes, infrastructure (roads, water, sewer), presence of confined animal feeding operations and conservation areas — and said the goal is to channel future development into areas where services can be provided most efficiently and to preserve prime agricultural land elsewhere.

Stantec will prepare alternative growth scenarios showing what denser or more modest development could look like in selected areas, Webb said, and commissioners may ask for scenarios for additional areas such as the K-18/airport corridor. Webb invited commissioners to suggest additional candidate areas for scenario work.

Webb emphasized DGAs are guidance rather than mandates: being inside a DGA does not guarantee automatic approval of development; permits and reviews would still be required. The meeting transcript shows planning staff and commissioners discussed technical constraints such as steep slopes and private wastewater systems in lake-area lots.

The comprehensive-plan process extends over the coming months. Webb said county staff will share the draft materials online and at the Aug. 5 workshop and will return results to the commission as scenarios and recommended updates are developed.

The county did not take a vote on plan text during the meeting; the workshop and subsequent materials are planned steps before any adoption vote.","County planning staff previewed a comprehensive-plan update and plans to expand some designated growth areas (DGAs) around the county; a public workshop is scheduled for Aug. 5 in Leonardville.",{"_33":101,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":102,"_41":103,"_43":104,"_45":105,"_47":106,"_49":107,"_51":108,"_53":109,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":110,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":111,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6503722,"Riley County signs Make My Move contract, to submit state application; chamber to sign separate MOU",370,5068000,5438000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5487154-c5cd11b16c5ae427cee50ff36c2cd8cc&start=5068&end=5438","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5487154-c5cd11b16c5ae427cee50ff36c2cd8cc/thumbnail_5068000.jpg","/articles/6503722/Kansas/Riley-County-signs-Make-My-Move-contract-to-submit-state-application-chamber-to-sign-separate-MOU","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6503722-5e64f70cd8fc638f76ddcd07791084ae/orig.mp4?Expires=1775478152&Signature=Kdtks4sSPfeGIgxF6aYYzQwnR1epcB5NBytP-A3s5Tr-kIyG5EaMFH6koOH2JHRLeZvF3r7Y5O-8GSNVHXKn9Nxi9WcT1nbsqKOjtVuy~YRLSh8VuItFHuAB4tvsmkbfRScbCuA7QzXqAGQQqtl4Y1RLYkp4Se9SQXgYKErg0sJpVmpv8HlQWKJfWoJ9zS-RnCykwTfhadFuD23K5S7UGC0QJt590ayc9UKHulLICxfY~b7ZnSYvNcmJxd3tuNC3XwH2gBkddkFGn-aoC9LyfW6QXRA0ctS7SYF5vcYoKSjArTYS~Hkg3Fc9y8jisYU9~zSZkeHf9r50BuArJzp8ZA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Riley County commissioners voted to execute a contract with the nonprofit Make My Move and authorized county staff to move forward with a state grant application connected to the program.

The contract was presented by Jacob Hansen, interim Riley County counselor, who said county and chamber staff met last week to work out the logistics. Hansen told the commission the county will sign a direct contract with Make My Move and that the Manhattan Area Chamber of Commerce will enter a separate memorandum of understanding to provide administrative and outreach services. \"Ultimately, Amanda's on the hook, if for whatever reason that fall through,\" Hansen said, referring to Planning Director Amanda Webb as the staff lead for the county portion of the work. Commissioners approved the contract by motion and recorded the customary \"Aye\" votes; the record in the transcript does not list a roll-call tally by name.

Hansen said the Department of the Treasury has been notified that Riley County intends to submit an application and that the Treasury will review submissions in August. He also said the county can terminate the contract with 90 days' notice if the grant application is not awarded or if local arrangements change.

Hansen and Amanda Webb said they plan an MOU with the chamber to define specific services the chamber will provide, modeled in part on a 2020 CARES-Act small-business loan effort. Peter Lorenz of Make My Move and Darren Solden of the Manhattan Area Chamber of Commerce participated in recent planning discussions, Hansen said.

The commissioners instructed staff to finalize the separate MOU with the chamber and bring it back for review. Hansen said the MOU will be provided to commissioners \"ASAP\" and that staff have a meeting scheduled with the chamber to finalize details.

Votes at the meeting were recorded as motions carried with commissioners saying \"Aye.\" The transcript does not include a roll-call tally naming which commissioner cast which vote.

The contract and supporting paperwork were signed at the meeting so the county can meet the Treasury's application timetable.

The county will return with the chamber MOU spelling out operational tasks, timelines and performance expectations prior to spending or obligating grant funds.

Commissioners did not discuss specific budget allocations in the meeting record; the contract authorizes staff to pursue the application and finalize the county's contract terms.","Riley County commissioners approved a contract with Make My Move and authorized staff to proceed with a state grant application; the county and Manhattan Area Chamber of Commerce will finalize a separate MOU for local support services.","actionData","errors"]
