Committee hears $2.2 million contract for 16‑bed DYS residential facility
Summary
DYS presented a residential-services contract for a 16‑bed moderate-risk facility priced at about $2.2 million; officials said the facility averages roughly three turnovers per year and described the contract as a program continuity item.
Dudley Perry, general counsel for the Department of Youth Services, presented a residential-services contract for a moderate-risk facility that the department said serves 16 beds and carries an approximate price of $2.2 million.
Perry told the committee the facility typically turns over roughly three times per year and that the contract is intended to maintain continuity of care while operations continue. Committee members asked how many children the contract would impact; Perry confirmed the 16‑bed figure and the turnover estimate.
The presentation was procedural and focused on service continuity; no committee member objected during the session and the item moved on without recorded amendment or vote in the meeting minutes.
Committee staff said they appreciated the agency’s work and asked only routine clarifying questions about enrollment and facility operations.
