Information
PROBLEM/ISSUE STATEMENT
Rimrock Foundation is one of the main treatment providers in the City of Billings and the sole provider of the specific treatment services needed for the participants within the three treatment courts in the Billings Adult Misdemeanor Treatment Court (BAMTC). Rimrock has provided treatment for BAMTC since its inception in 2005 because it is able to provide a continuum of treatment that is unavailable elsewhere. Rimrock Foundation has been selected to provide these services for BAMTC and was written as such into each of the grant proposals prior to being awarded.
ALTERNATIVES ANALYZED
Council may:
- Approve the agreement with Rimrock Foundation for treatment services;
- Not approve the agreement with Rimrock Foundation for treatment services and give staff guidance on obtaining treatment services for the BAMTC.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The proposed agreement with Rimrock Foundation for treatment services will not exceed $440,470 over the two remaining years of the acquired grants. The cost is included in the grants.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends Council approve the agreement with Rimrock Foundation for treatment services for the Billings Adult Misdemeanor Treatment Courts.
