Canadian County assigns juvenile-detention contract to public trust
Summary
Canadian County transferred the Gary E. Miller detention center into a Title 60 public trust and assigned its Juvenile Detention Center Services Agreement for FY2026-27 to the Canadian County Children's Justice Center Authority, which accepted responsibility and agreed to indemnify the county.
Canadian County has assigned its Juvenile Detention Center Services Agreement to the Canadian County Children's Justice Center Authority, a Title 60 public trust, effective July 1, 2026. The assignment covers services for fiscal year 2026-2027, which the agreement lists as ending June 30, 2027.
Mallory Poplin, executive director of the Canadian County Children's Justice Center, notified partner counties in a letter that "the Gary E. Miller detention center... has recently transferred into a Title 60 Public Trust. As such, all contracts previously authorized by the Canadian County Board of County Commissioners are being re-issued to reflect the appropriate authorization by the Children's Justice Center Authority Board of Trustees." The letter asked counties to "review, sign and return the enclosed FY27 contract" to the Children's Justice Center at 7905 East Highway 66.
The Assignment and Assumption Agreement states that "Assignor assigns, conveys and transfers to Assignee ... all of Assignor's rights, obligations, liabilities, title and interest in and to the Contract." Under its terms, the assignee "accepts the foregoing Assignment and covenants and agrees to abide by, keep, perform and assume all the conditions, covenants, obligations and provisions of the Contract to be kept and performed by Assignor" and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Assignor for liabilities arising on or after the agreement date. The agreement lists the assignee's notice address as 7905 East Highway 66, Mustang, OK 73036.
The paper filing bears signature blocks for Canadian County officials and for the Children's Justice Center Authority Board of Trustees; the document as provided includes attestations by a county clerk. The assignment text appears in a recorded county filing dated July 6, 2026. The agreement and the re-issued FY27 contract shift authority for the juvenile-detention services agreement from the county commission to the public trust while keeping the contract terms unchanged.
