Commission approves fiscal‑year 2027 bailiff and court security contract with state court
Summary
Kane County approved an updated bailiff and court security contract with the Utah 6th District Court; Sheriff Shoa described the partnership and said the county has seen a significant increase in contract dollars tied to hours of service.
The commission approved the fiscal 2027 bailiff and perimeter security contract with the State of Utah, 6th District Court. Sheriff Shoa described the arrangement as a partnership: "We work with the courts... it's a partnership of the 6th district court," he said, and explained the increase in the contract amount reflects expected hours of service and staffing needs.
Commission discussion noted the clerk's office lacked the most recent contract in file and that the last available copy dated to 2022; commissioners asked whether the contract language had substantive changes and staff confirmed the increase is tied to hours rather than new obligations. Chair moved to approve the contract as presented and the commission voted in favor.
