COMMUNICATIONS (Continued)
Taub moved to Receive and File Communication Items A – J. Supported by Covey.
In regard to Communication Item G - Commissioner Taub noted the 6th paragraph states, “However, in direct conflict with the
Gosling Amendment the Michigan Drug Court Grant Program applications states “Applicants must provide assurance of the
intention of the jurisdiction to continue the program after the funding from the Michigan Drug Court Program has been
exhausted.” Commissioner Taub notified Ms. Renfrow, Court Administrator, she would not support acceptance of these
grant funds if the County is required to provide additional funding to continue the Sobriety Court after gran t funds were
exhausted. Ms. Renfrow stated the grant funds are primarily used for treatment and if the funds are exhausted no further
treatment would be available.
