Adult Corrections Director Erin Robertson requested approval to submit a KDOC block-grant application allocating $512,452 to fund a four-county adult corrections program for the year; Commissioner Kelly asked Robertson to seek contributions from the other counties for office-space and utilities costs and Chairman Pruett signed the application.
Adult Corrections Director Erin Robertson asked the Board to approve a KDOC block-grant application that funds his program. Robertson told the commissioners the program is "entirely funded from a block grant that comes from KDOC" and that his allocation is $512,452.00 to fund four counties' adult corrections programs for the year.
Commissioner Keith Kelly asked that Robertson request contributions from the other three counties to offset office space and utilities costs, noting the program has been housed in Jackson County for nearly four years and remodel costs were borne locally. Chairman Mark Pruett signed the grant application during the meeting. No other conditions or matching-fund requirements were recorded in the transcript.
