Board of Commissioners - Finance/Audit/Budget Committee - Oct 28, 2026

The state's community corrections grant came in about $130,000 under request, so a planned recovery-focused employment program is being cut, though the county may partner with Live Right on a separate grant.

Board of Commissioners - Joint Public Services and Records and Public Safety Committees - Feb 12, 2026

The state cut Macomb County's community corrections grant by 5 percent — $131,150 — bringing it to about $1.82 million. The director said the state may restore funds mid-year; Commissioner Howard warned the cut could hurt programs that help restore people to the community.

MeetingJan 14, 2026approved

Board of Commissioners - Joint Finance/Audit/Budget and Internal Services Committees - Jan 14, 2026

The community corrections fund ran a $72,844 deficit in 2024 because the county transferred about $157,000 less than budgeted. The fix requires no new money — the current year's full $813,900 transfer is expected to end the year with a small surplus. The state requires a formal deficit elimination plan, which the committee recommended for adoption.
