Jefferson County commissioners said on July 29 that community corrections caseloads have increased and the board may hold extra monthly meetings to handle the volume.
"The number of cases for consideration by this board for community corrections in Jefferson County has increased significantly," Commissioner Dahlkemper said. She said the board may schedule two meetings in some months instead of one and advised that those meetings typically run 90 minutes to two hours.
The commissioners did not take formal action to change meeting schedules during the July 29 session but provided a notice to the public that additional hearings may be scheduled. No specifics were provided about case types, funding impacts, or policy changes tied to the caseload increase.
