Bill Summary

Local correctional facilities; reimbursements for housing convicted state felons. Provides that, notwithstanding the quarterly installment payments the Compensation Board is required to provide for reimbursements to localities, the Compensation Board shall ensure that it provides reimbursement to localities for the entirety of the costs incurred by such locality arising from housing convicted state felons in any local or regional correctional facility.

AI Summary

This bill mandates that the Compensation Board, an entity responsible for state reimbursements, must fully cover all costs incurred by local or regional correctional facilities for housing convicted state felons, overriding any existing provisions for quarterly installment payments. This means that instead of receiving payments in installments throughout the year, localities will be reimbursed for the complete expenses associated with holding these individuals, ensuring they are not financially burdened by the state's responsibility.
