43-3503. Legislative intent; county powers and duties.

Grants from the Commission Grant Program and aid from the County Juvenile Services Aid Program under the Juvenile Services Act and the federal Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act of 1974 may be used to fund nonsecure detention services. Each county shall routinely review services provided by contract providers and modify services as needed.
