Marshall County fiscal court approves contract to house Graves County inmates, pending approvals
Summary
The fiscal court approved a motion to sign a contract with Graves County to house its inmates, contingent on the county attorney's and Graves County's approvals; commissioners credited months of inter-county coordination.
A commissioner moved and the court approved a motion to "approve and sign the contract between the Marsh County fiscal court and the Graves County fiscal court for housing Graves County inmates," with the approval conditioned on the county attorney’s review and Graves County's sign-off. The motion was seconded and carried on a voice vote.
Commissioners thanked jail staff and counterparts in Graves and Callaway counties, noting the agreement reflects more than a year of discussion and interjurisdictional coordination. The court did not record a roll-call tally in the transcript; outcome was announced as "Motion carries." The contract will be finalized after the county attorney and Graves County complete their approvals.
