Sec. 4. The department may enter into contracts with appropriate city, county, state, or federal authorities for the confinement of, and provision of other correctional services to, offenders; and the city, county, and state authorities may enter into such contracts. If the department determines that an offender participating in a minimum security release program does not require the security of a public detention facility, it may contract with other public or private agencies for his custody and care.
