WHEREAS, the Ingham County Board of Commissioners authorized an agreement with the University of Cincinnati on behalf of the Center for Criminal Justice Research (CCJR) to advise Ingham County on the use of the Juvenile Justice Millage proceeds; and
WHEREAS, a contract has been negotiated which is in conformance with the expectations of the County and the Court, except that there is an impasse as to the inclusion of specific non-discrimination language as required by county policy; and
WHEREAS, the County Attorney's Office has negotiated alternate language, which, in their opinion, provides a level of protection to the county and to employees who may potentially be affected which is substantially the same as required by county policy; and
