Summary
The county is locking in up to $100,000 a year through 2028 for the CJC, now housed at the city. Residents questioned whether the elected sheriff supports the arrangement and what 'joint operation' really means; the sheriff said the center's resource hubs and temporary ROOTS support complement his department's work.
