County probation staff reported that an addition to the probation office was completed on Oct. 31 and is now fully in use. The department’s representative, Dylan Rich, told the court the new space allowed hiring additional staff to lower existing caseloads and invited commissioners to tour the completed space.
Commissioners thanked probation staff and noted the project’s minimal cost to county operations; the transcript records that the work was completed with GRAMA funds. No new budget appropriation was recorded during the discussion; the item was presented as an update and expression of appreciation.
Why it matters: Expanded office space enabled additional staff hiring aimed at reducing caseloads, which can affect probation outcomes and department workload.
