Probation Director Brittany Heysler told the Yates County Public Safety Committee on Aug. 4 that the county's Alternative to Incarceration program logged 189.5 hours of community service during the April–June 2026 quarter.

Heysler said restitution collections increased “quite a bit” in the last quarter and that several older, large restitution orders were paid in full.

The committee accepted the report as information.
