Brown County commissioners approved an inmate-housing agreement with Collin County that sets a housing rate of $75 per inmate per day. Speaker 1 explained the arrangement is a routine intercounty lodging agreement used when neighboring counties send inmates to Brown County's detention facility and said that some counties charge higher rates (one example cited as $105 per day).

Speaker 5 moved to approve the Collin County contract and indicated a signature page was provided; the presiding official confirmed a copy would be supplied. County staff and commissioners discussed deputy staffing levels and vehicle logistics; Speaker 1 said the jail population was 185 inmates, five of whom were under contract labor agreements.

The court approved the motion to enter the agreement and directed staff to complete signatures. Commissioners also discussed timing for releasing vehicles and arranging transfers as part of the operational handoff.
