The Screven County Board of Commissioners on Aug. 10, 2021 approved the FY 2022 Georgia Indigent Defense Services Agreement by unanimous vote.
Commissioner Rosa Romeo moved to approve the agreement; Commissioner Allison Willis seconded the motion, and the vote "carried by unanimous vote," according to the minutes. The minutes do not provide further details about contract provisions, costs or implementation steps.
Why it matters: the agreement governs indigent defense services for county residents who cannot afford counsel; the minutes record only the approval motion and do not specify terms or budgetary impacts. Any operational or budget details for implementation were not provided in the transcript and are listed as not specified.
