Ellis County approves $9,600 opioid‑settlement transfer for RePath supervision software

Jan 6, 2026

The commission approved a $9,600 transfer from the opioid settlement fund to pay the first-year RePath application license for court supervision clients; first-year cost is $9,600 and will rise to $14,000 in later years, and staff will return midyear with an update.

The full story

Court Administrator Mike Smith requested the transfer of $9,600 from the county’s opioid settlement fund to pay for one year of a RePath supervision application used for Court Services bond‑supervision clients. Smith said the tool has been "very successful in the past" and that it "does not replace GPS monitoring with the highest risk bond clients." Smith explained the first‑year cost is $9,600 and that the price would increase to $14,000 in subsequent years.
