ORS 169.670 Transfer of persons to facility operated by Department of Corrections; costs; return; exception

Whenever the governing body of a county or city transfers a misdemeanant or violator or a person with pretrial or post-trial status to a regional correctional facility operated by the Department of Corrections, the county or city shall pay the cost of transportation to and from the facility and other expenses incidental thereto, including the expenses of law enforcement officers accompanying the misdemeanant, violator or person with pretrial or post-trial status. The Department of Corrections shall cause at the expense of the county or city, each misdemeanant, violator or person with pretrial or post-trial status transferred to its custody under ORS 169.660 to be returned upon request of the governing body of the county or city. However, such return is not required when the release is pursuant to work release or parole where other arrangements have been made for the placement of the misdemeanant, violator or person with pretrial or post-trial status.
