Commission approves $808,438.94 in KDOC funds for Central Kansas Community Corrections
Summary
The commission unanimously approved Central Kansas Community Corrections' acceptance of Kansas Department of Corrections FY2027 funding totaling $808,438.94, including $27,720.53 for behavioral health and $739,377.14 for personnel costs.
Brooke Haulmark of the Kansas Department of Corrections asked the Russell County Commission to accept FY2027 funding for Central Kansas Community Corrections totaling $808,438.94. The allocation includes $739,377.14 for personnel (the director, two administrative assistants, and four intensive supervision officers), $27,720.53 designated for behavioral health expenses, and $51,810.70 for operational costs such as testing supplies, vehicle insurance/maintenance/fuel, utilities, and translation services.
Haulmark described program uses and staffing: "In Fiscal Year 2027, an Intensive Supervision Officer will facilitate a cognitive class," and commissioners approved the acceptance by motion with Steve Reinhardt seconding. Meeting participants clarified these are state funds administered through KDOC rather than county general funds.
The commission approved the acceptance unanimously. The action does not obligate county general funds; it authorizes the local entity to receive and spend the KDOC allocation in line with KDOC specifications.
