40-36-305. Continued grant funding Additional incentive funding Noncompliance with plan.

(a)  In order to remain eligible for continued grant funding, a recipient must substantially comply with the standards and administrative regulations of the board of probation and parole defining program effectiveness. Each recipient will participate in an evaluation to determine local and state program effectiveness. The form of this evaluation will be determined by the board of probation and parole.

(b)  Continued grant funding shall be based on demonstrated effectiveness in reducing the number of commitments that would likely have occurred without the programs funded under this chapter, and also on evidence that the programs are not dealing with persons who otherwise would have been on regular probation; provided, that each recipient, having been deemed eligible for continued grant funding by the board of probation and parole and having entered into an agreement with the board of probation and parole for direct financial aid under this chapter, shall have exclusive authority to provide the contracted services within the agreed upon jurisdiction for the duration of the contract. Nothing in this subsection (b) shall be construed to diminish the board of probation and parole's authority under this section.

(c)  Subject to funding availability, each participating county is eligible to receive additional incentive funding for extending programs to other eligible offenders or for adding new programs if it exceeds the objectives of its community corrections plan.

(d)  If the board of probation and parole determines that there are reasonable grounds to believe that a participating county is not complying with its plan, or the minimum standards, the board of probation and parole shall give thirty (30) days' written notice to the county legislative body, the local community corrections advisory board, and the administrator of the program. If the board of probation and parole finds that the participating county is not complying with its plan or the minimum standards established in this chapter, the board of probation and parole shall require the county legislative body to provide a written agreement as to how and when the specific deficiencies identified by the board of probation and parole will be corrected. If no agreement is submitted to the board of probation and parole within the time limit the board of probation and parole has specified or if the deficiencies are not corrected within forty-five (45) days after the agreement has been approved by the board of probation and parole, the board of probation and parole may suspend any part or all of the funding until compliance is achieved.
