programs by local governments; screening procedures; acceptance
or rejection of offenders, parolees or inmates.

     (a) Any unit of local government may establish, maintain
and operate adult community correctional facilities and programs
deemed necessary to serve its own needs and may enter into
contracts or agreements with a corrections board for the
placement of offenders, parolees and inmates in its adult
community correctional facility or program.
     (b) The unit of local government shall establish
procedures for screening offenders, parolees and inmates who are
to be placed in its adult community correctional facility or
program. The screening shall take into account the risk the
offender, parolee or inmate may present to himself and others as
well as the aptitude, attitude and social and occupational
skills of the offender, parolee or inmate.

     (c) The unit of local government has the authority to
accept, reject or reject after acceptance the placement of any
offender, parolee or inmate in its adult community correctional
facility or program pursuant to any contract or agreement with a
corrections board. If an offender, parolee or inmate is rejected
by the unit of local government after initial acceptance, the
offender, parolee or inmate shall remain in the custody of the
unit of local government for a reasonable period of time pending
receipt of appropriate orders for transfer of the offender,
parolee or inmate.
