Financial Impact:
There are sufficient funds available in the department’s budget to cover this expense.
Background Information:
The fencing around the outside yard of the Tehama County Juvenile Justice Center has experienced damage. Due to requirements for outside activity for the juvenile wards and a need to maintain security of the facility, immediate repair was necessary. Failure to repair the fencing would result in both security risks and the risk of harm the health and safety of the juvenile wards and County staff.
