TRICOR presents 2027 budget to committee, highlights commissary expansion and recidivism trends
Summary
TRICOR told the committee it expects revenue near $30 million for FY2027, plans a commissary distribution center with CoreCivic and reported a 2025 three‑year recidivism rate of 18.5%. The committee approved the budget and moved it to finance.
TRICOR representatives presented the agency's FY2027 budget to the committee and described enterprise operations and performance metrics. The agency said it is not requesting state funding, reported $29 million in revenue last year and forecasted approximately $30 million for the coming year; TRICOR's 2027 revenue budget request was described as $63.7 million (enterprise accounting), with a capital budget of $664,000. "We finished 2025 at 18.5 percent," the presenter said of the three‑year recidivism rate.
Agency leaders detailed a commissary program expansion that will include a CoreCivic‑constructed 25,000‑square‑foot distribution center to serve CoreCivic sites, and highlighted workforce certifications (logistics, forklift) tied to commissary operations as reentry supports. Committee members asked about long‑term vacancies and county pilot programs for inmate labor; TRICOR said it carries vacancies for programmatic flexibility and described county cooperation in Henderson and Shelby counties. The committee voted to move the TRICOR budget to the Finance Committee.
