Understanding detention costs

What level of CAF program cost detail would be useful enough to justify added accounting effort?

The jury requests separate CAF cost reporting; Sheriff cites shared staff and resource requirements in declining it. Discussion weighs information value and feasible allocation, not independently verified savings.

Why this matters

Residents need to understand both program costs and the limits of shared-cost estimates.
