Agenda Item

Consider approval of an Agreement between Corrections Corporation of America and Williamson County regarding the management and operation of the T. Don Hutto Facility pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in an Inter-Governmental Services Agreement between ICE and Williamson County and authorize the County Judge to execute the said agreement and any other addenda relating to the agreement.

Background

Williamson County will be contracting with Corrections Corporation of America (CCA) to act as its subcontractor and CCA will thereby provide the services set forth in the proposed Intergovernmental Service Agreement on behalf of the County at the T. Don Hutto Facility.

This is a five year agreement and it contains a 90 day termination provision that provides the County with the ability to terminate the agreement for mere convenience and without cause. The County will continue to receive approximately $15,000.00 per month from ICE and CCA will be paying the County $6,000.00 per month for the County to maintain a liaison at the facility. The proposed agreement contains an indemnity provision whereby CCA has agreed to defend, indemnify and save harmless the County from any errors or omissions caused by CCA and/or for any breaches committed by CCA during the performance of its duties as the County's subcontractor under the Intergovernmental Services Agreement.
