CPL 730 unfunded mandate costs county over $1 million a year

Summary

Supervisor Beaty wanted the county to formally back Washington County's push against the state's CPL 730 psychiatric competency exam mandate, which has ballooned from under $100,000 to over $1 million a year for Warren County. The vote got pulled because nobody could find the actual Washington County resolution to support. It's now in committee — expect it back.
