Explanation
BACKGROUND
This ordinance authorizes the appropriation of $120,000 within the Franklin County Municipal Court Indigent Driver Alcohol Treatment fund; authorizes the Franklin County Municipal Court Administrative and Presiding Judge to enter into contract with Alvis Inc.; and authorizes the expenditure of up to $120,000 for halfway housing treatment for indigent OVI and NON-OVI offenders.
Alvis is certified by the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Corrections (ODRC) as a halfway house which is a state requirement, and possesses the necessary level of expertise to provide housing and treatment services. The Court has a need for an ODRC-certified halfway house.
The Franklin County Municipal Court Administrative and Presiding Judge respectfully asks for a waiver of the competitive bidding requirements of Chapter 329 because the Court has determined, for continuity of service that it is in its best interest to enter into contract with Alvis for halfway housing and treatment. Alvis is the only facility in the county that is state certified and can address the needs of the Court.
This service cannot be provided by City employees as there is no facility for such services.
