St. Lucie County's program has successfully operated for many years and provides enhanced supervision and availability of GPS electronic monitoring awaiting disposition of criminal charges. The Public Safety Council unanimously voted to recommend transmittal of the pretrial release program to the Board of County Commissioners on October 23, 2017. Martin County Sheriff's office and St. Lucie County developed an Interlocal Agreement which provides for the implementation by St. Lucie County's pretrial release program of a pretrial release program for pretrial defendants in Martin County. The Sheriff will administer the program with St. Lucie County staff. The initial term of the Interlocal was for one year, ending September 30, 2019. This First Amendment is to extend the term of the Interlocal by one year.
