At the April 2 meeting of the Houston County Board of Commissioners, County Attorney Sam Jandt requested that the board approve funding for a Houston County resident currently on felony probation to attend the Winona County Treatment Court.
Jandt said this is the first person who met the criteria to be paid solely by Houston County since the drug court existed. In the past, there were some with shared payments from other counties.
