BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
PASS-AROUND REVIEW
PASS-AROUND TITLE: Consider 19.Judicial District Weld County DUI Court Memorandum of
Understanding for State Fiscal Years 2025-2030
DEPARTMENT: Justice Services DATE: July 31,2025
PERSON REQUESTING: Doug ErlerW
Brief description of the problem/issue:
The 19th Judicial District operates a DUI Specialty Court involving multiple participating agencies.Our
department is involved through our Work Release program,which serves many of this program's clients.The
Court is seeking to update the MOU for another 5-year term,and the enclosed document reflects their new
version.I've made no edits except only to insert our department's name under the"Work Release"section and
added my name as the primary signatory for our portion.There are no costs associated with our continued
participation,and as noted,we represent just one component of the overall agreement.
What options exist for the Board?
Consequences:When participants successfully complete the program,often their charges are reduced or
dismissed,they avoid jail time,it can serve as a mechanism toward reinstatement of a driver's license,they
receive structured treatment,there is true judicial oversight and the peer support and accountability by other
participants helps the program to succeed.The negative side?Costs to the participants for treatment and testing,
time commitments,and sadly,not everyone succeeds.
Impacts:Participants who complete the program are less likely to reoffend,and while a DUI may remain on
one's record,completion of the program often helps in future legal and employment situations,and overall,it
helps participants improve their lives.Financially,it serves as a cost avoidance to an expensive jail bed.
Costs(Current Fiscal Year/Ongoing or Subsequent Fiscal Years):No costs to the County,at least within
the MOU.
Recommendation:
The DUI Specialty Court program is designed to enhance public safety by reducing recidivism of DUI offenders
by breaking the cycle of addiction through a combination of individualized treatment,personal accountability and
intensive court supervision to promote individual responsibility and citizenship and return a productive member
back to the community.
Option 1.Authorize placement of the MOU on a future Consent Agenda and allow me to serve as the signatory.
Once the MOU is fully executed,I will file with the CTB.
Option 2.Authorize placement on a future Hearing agenda for review by the Board and signature by the Chair.
Option 3.Work Session.
I requested a review of the proposed MOU from the County Attorney's Office,and they approve.They also
concur with recommending Option 1.The purpose of the MOU is simply to secure agreement among all
participating entities and does not seek the BOCC Chair's signature.Option 1 is the recommended approach.
Our department is a consistent contributor to this program,and we fully support its important work.Thank you
for your consideration.
