Cullen inmate lead notes William Donald Schaefer's 1995 deficit appropriation of over 5 million to fund most of DJS spaces at the school. The 1996 budget, prepared before leaving office, adds another 4 million to fully cover the facility run by Youth Services International. Governor Glendening adopted the Schaefer budget as a template and faced scrutiny over the appropriation. Local legislators welcomed news the school would not grow larger, with Sen. John Derr calling it a relief and noting earlier miscommunication by the governor's office.
