Summary
Commissioners voted to table an $804,572 interdepartmental agreement with the Marion County Sheriff’s Office for the Connect and Protect law enforcement behavioral health response program, requesting further internal review before returning the matter to a board session.
The Marion County Board of Commissioners voted on March 12 to table an interdepartmental agreement with the Marion County Sheriff’s Office that would have provided $804,572 for mobile crisis services, program materials, administrative costs and a one‑time fleet purchase for the Connect and Protect law enforcement behavioral health response program.
Commissioner Danielle Bethell told the board that further clarification on the agreement had been requested at a management update on March 11 and that more internal discussion and review were necessary before the item should return to a board session. Commissioner Colm Willis moved to table the item; Commissioner Kevin Cameron seconded and the motion carried by voice vote.
The record does not show further details of the points requiring additional work. The item will return to a future meeting after staff completes the requested clarifications and revisions.
