2015 year end estimate

REAM Grant Information- Curt Petzel- Discussed the statewide allotment of $600,000 for an alcohol monitoring subsidy of which DFO CC will likely be awarded $35,000 for each of the next two fiscal years. The monies will be used to subsidize the costs of Electronic Alcohol Monitoring to those who would otherwise be unable to afford the service and likely see increased jail time as a result. Likely able to serve approximately 60 clients with these grant funds however this will be contingent on the negotiations around the Midwest Monitoring contract. (See below) Midwest Monitoring contract update- Our current EAM/EHM vendor who is operating with an expired contract and negotiations will be taking place to address higher daily rates for DFO vs. other counties around the state. Meetings to begin June 15th and will involve Sheriff Dept. and DFO CC.
