On December 31, the term of the Interlocal Agreement for Jail Services between King County and
your city will end. Our Department of Adult and Juvenile Detention (DAJD) has created a new Jail
Services Agreement (JSA) template, which the County Executive has approved and transmitted for
approval by the King County Council.
The proposed new JSA is substantially similar to the agreement that expires this year. DAJD is
proposing a five-year term. While the King County Council has final authority on the proposed
template, we have collaborated with Council staff on preliminary reviews and are not anticipating
significant changes to the draft version attached to this letter. DAJD will reach out to you directly
for signature on a new JSA once approved.
Should the proposed JSA be approved by Council, DAJD will apply the same annual inflator used in
the current contract to create the 2025 rates. The following are the proposed rates effective
January 1, 2025, through December 31, 2025.
