ITEM:
Discussion and possible action on any and all matters regarding extending the Operating and Management Agreement with LaSalle Corrections. (Kay Marion Macuil, General Counsel)
SUMMARY:
The Operating and Management Agreement with LaSalle Corrections expires November 30, 2024. Due to the low number of detainees which leads to fewer dollars for the operations, LaSalle gave notice that it was not renewing the contract. Since then, LaSalle and SLFDC staff have been working on solutions to preserve the contract.
The proposed first amendment that this Board approved on September 3 had a definite end date and LaSalle did not sign it, so it never became effective.
This second amendment extends the contract indefinitely but allows for termination upon 75 days' notice. This gives the both SLFDC and LaSalle maximum flexibility given the timing of improved revenues from the federal agencies is uncertain in an election year.
