Kent County commissioners unanimously voted Monday to restore full operations at the Kent County Detention Center, ending months of contentious debate over whether to outsource inmates to neighboring facilities. The Kent County News reports Commissioner John Price, who initially proposed exploring cost savings through inmate transfers, made the motion to reinstate the detention center. Commissioner Albert Nickerson seconded, and Commission President Ron Fithian voted in favor. The decision came after Price withdrew a request for closed session made earlier in the day, opting instead for public discussion of the facility’s future.
