Board tables Dallas law-enforcement contract to let county deputy review terms
Summary
Supervisors tabled consideration of a year-to-year agreement with the City of Dallas for law-enforcement services—$26,350 payable quarterly for the contract year—so the county deputy (not present) can review terms and confirm whether renegotiation is needed.
The Board of Supervisors postponed action on a one-year law-enforcement services agreement between Wright County and the City of Dallas after a supervisor said the county deputy who handles Dallas was not available to confirm whether the contract terms should be renegotiated.
A supervisor described the agreement as year-to-year, covering Aug. 1 through July 30, 2026, and said the City of Dallas has already signed the contract. The amount listed in the contract is $26,350, payable quarterly. Trustees agreed to table the item to allow the deputy (referred to as Jason in discussion) to review the contract and confirm whether the county should accept the stated amount or seek renegotiation.
The board instructed staff to place the item back on the agenda next week so they can consider the deputy’s input before acting. No vote on acceptance of the contract was recorded; a motion to table the item was approved.
