Memorandum
This resolution seeks Council approval for a service contract with the Washtenaw County Sheriff's Office for drug abuse screening services to 15th Judicial District Court defendants who are participants in the Veterans Treatment Court, Mental Health Court and Sobriety Court programs. These services are funded by grants from the Supreme Court of Michigan State Court Administrative Office for Grant Fiscal Year 2017, and without regard to City Fiscal Year.
Budget/Fiscal Impact: Services provided under this contract will be funded through the State Court Administrative Office Michigan Veterans Treatment Court Grant Program (SCAO-MVTCGP) ($9,689.43), Michigan Mental Health Court Grant Program (SCAO-MMHCGP) ($14,317.78) and the Michigan Drug Court Grant Program (SCAO-MDCGP) ($1,000.00). Grant award acceptance was previously approved by City Council on November 10, 2016 (R-16-412, R-16-413 and R-16-424).
Approval of a ten percent (10%) contract contingency is also requested to allow the Court to increase services should additional funds become available for drug testing services through an approved State Court Administrative Office grant program budget amendment [e.g., approved grant project line-item budget adjustments within the total program awards.]
