Commissioners hold DHHS transportation-contract item pending sheriff's office follow-up
Summary
An agenda item to approve a contract with the Utah Department of Health and Human Services for transportation of DHHS-referred clients was held because no sheriff's department representative was present; commissioners asked to alert the sheriff's office to attend next week.
The commission considered a contract between Weber County and the Utah Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) to provide transportation services for clients referred by DHHS, including high-security or high-risk transports. A county presenter listed the contract on the agenda, but no representative from the sheriff's department was present to address operational details and security concerns; one commissioner suggested holding the item until the sheriff or a designee could attend.
Chair Commissioner Gage Froer said he would entertain a motion to hold; the commission moved and seconded the hold and the motion carried. "That'll be held and alert to sheriff's department for next week," Froer said. The item will return when a sheriff's representative can be present to discuss details of transporting high-security/high-risk clients.
