Mr. Yaung stated that LB561 was passed and has a fast timeline for th� implementation. It is ta start in October and be completed by mid year 2014. And they are still not sure how it will impact the way counties do business or what dallars are going to be available to the counties. There is ta be $1.5 million dollars that are to be received by the Crime Cammission and then distribut�d on a census basis to the counties. They are not sure of the rules and in order to make this work they will have to be aggressive about getting grants and they may need help with that process. There may be an increase in detentian costs. The philosophy is to make short term stays and the only facility in the state is Boys Town. He stated that Douglas County has set aside $200,OOO.DO to cover the costs. It will have an impact on Hall County because the time frames are so short it will be a challenge to implement. Mr. Quandt questioned if juvenile will be sent to Geneva or Kearney and Mr. Young stated that will be the last resort. Ms. Lancaster stated that she talked to Senator Gloor about the space needs and they are not sure if the funding will include reimbursement for space. It is the intent to use the same formulas that have been in place. Mr. Young expressed concern on the grant process they have applied in the past but Hall County has not received any grant dollars. Lancaster str�ssed that it will be important to identify all af the counties space needs, services and the costs. Mr. Schutz stated that he talked ta the crime commission and there is $1.5 million dollars designated for this and they hope they will have the funding to the counties in July 2013. The Hall County percentage is 3.364% or $48,156.00 if it is the same formula the money should stay the same and be available quickly. He alsa noted that Hall County is in a good position because they have a Hall County Collabarative group this group comes to the table to identify what services are needed and they look at who can provide those services.
