OC Gets Preliminary OK For $100 Million In Jail Funds
Posted by: Jubal | 05/12/2008 8:44 AM
The Sacramento Bee reported on Friday that Orange County got the preliminary OK for $100 million in AB 900 jail bond funds. that would pay for 1,536 jail beds. It was part of $750 million that will be doled out to 12 counties.
I don't know if final approval of that $100 million is contingent upon working out an agreement with the City of orange over siting the re-entry program at Theo Lacy Jail, but if so, it would give Orange's negotiating team of Councilmen Denis Bilodeau and Jon Dumitru tremendous leverage.
