El Dorado County Grand Jury funding issue remains unresolved
A February court date to determine whether the El Dorado County Grand Jury will be funded at the level it wants or if the Board of Supervisors can enforce the budget it approved last year has been pushed back to mid-March.
The Board of Supervisors on Jan. 24 augmented the grand jury budget by $12,000.
It’s possible the topic will be on the Board of Supervisors’ agenda Feb. 28, as well.
Lake Tahoe News first reported on this Feb. 1.
