Dear Commissioner Butler:
In accordance with your request at the Detention and
Corrections Authority Meeting on Monday, I have prepared a draft
of a bill amending the law to provide for the 11-member committee
and providing that the Detention and Corrections Authority Budget
must be approved by both the City Council and the Board of County
Commissioners.
Provision is also made to take care of the problem in the
event the Council and County Board are unable to agree on a
budget. In that case, the Council and Board shall meet in joint
session, at which time each member of the Council and the Board
shall be entitled to one vote, except the Chairman who shall be
permitted to cast one vote only in case of a tie.
Very truly yours,
�I'"`y
Daniel A. Klas
