Resident urges continued county support for recovery room; court approves same funding level as last year

A resident who operates a local recovery room described how the program has grown and asked the court to continue funding. The speaker said the site had grown "from 10 people to probably 70 or 80 people" and that he currently houses 27 residents, saying the program helps people find employment and stability.

Court members moved to provide the same funding as last year and the motion passed by voice vote. The transcript contains inconsistent numbers about the prior-year amount (the speaker said "Y'all, y'all gave me $454,500 dollars" while later discussion referenced "same as last year at 45"), so the precise dollar figure is unclear from the public record and should be confirmed in the county's fiscal records.
