(AP) — County supervisors in Gage County in southeast Nebraska are ready to begin sending some of their jail inmates across the state line to be housed in Washington County, Kan., but the county attorney wants to wait to get an agreement on paper.

Holding prisoners in Kansas will cost $35 per day under an agreement between the two counties. Sheriff Millard “Gus” Gustafson said on Friday he has met with Washington County Sheriff Justin Cordry to discuss details of outsourcing inmates to the 34-bed Kansas jail built in 2007. Gage County would save as much as $30 a day for each inmate it moves to Kansas.

Chief Deputy Attorney Rick Schreiner says an agreement needs to be drafted that leaves no unforeseen scenarios.
