# Committee Meeting | PSJ - November 12, 2026

The Wayne County Commission Committee on Public Safety, Judiciary met on November 12, 2026. It considered a no-cost facility-use agreement with Metro Tech Automotive Group for sheriff’s employees waiting while county vehicles are serviced. Commissioners raised concerns about the sheriff’s logo and the appearance of an endorsement or preferential arrangement. A motion to reject the agreement was made and supported, but the transcript does not capture a vote or final disposition.

The committee approved a three-year, $700,000 U.S. Department of Justice grant agreement for a sheriff’s office body-worn-camera program, with no county match. The number of cameras and deployment plan remain undecided; staff said they would obtain additional quotes, with Axon a likely option because it integrates with the county’s vehicle-camera system. The committee also approved a retroactive amendment extending a state-funded community corrections contract; staff said reduced enrollment lowered funding from more than $1 million to $600,000 across providers. Separately, it approved an $80,000 grant-funded amendment to Avalon Healing Center’s victim-advocacy subaward, extending it through September 30, 2027, with no county match. The community corrections amendment and board appointments were approved together; one commissioner abstained on item seven.
