Georgia Plans New UAT Se For Prison Reform And Trustees

The UAT Se carries a 20000 appropriation split as 10000 for building and 10000 for first year maintenance. A governor appointed board of trustees will run it, with no link to the state penitentiary system. A donated building site is sought and the governor is expected to appoint the board soon.
