County Probation Bureau Favored By Supervisors Panel
A county probation bureau is urged by a Board of Supervisors special committee chaired by Pliny W. Williamson Scarsdale. The panel backs creating a centralized system to reduce overlapping probation across courts and save public funds. If local law blocks a bureau the committee seeks enabling legislation. The group notes 5000 more probationers than inmates last year and cites $29.20 versus $440.52 annual costs per probationer and prisoner, respectively.
