On May 20 the Roosevelt County Commission unanimously approved a renewal with APIC Solutions for the detention center and accepted a $160,000 DWI grant; it tabled a requested safety committee budget and a review of Personnel Ordinance Section 9 to a May 30 special meeting and held an executive session from which no action resulted.
Roosevelt County commissioners on May 20 approved several formal actions, including a contract renewal for detention services and acceptance of a DWI grant, while tabling two items for a special budget meeting scheduled May 30.
