Board packet PDF page 4 quotes the Sheriff’s SB1022 mental health expansion discussion, engaging F2 with finding-specific reasoning and a named checkable project. The quote implies acceptance, but states neither explicit agreement nor disputed scope and reasons. The standalone Sheriff letter was checked to confirm that F2 and R2 are paired and the quoted text is the Sheriff’s response.

Scoring confidence: high
