Commission extends reporting window to Nov. 30 and plans fall facility visits
Summary
Chair Sen. Will Brownsberger told the panel that the commission placed an extension to its statutory reporting deadline in the pending budget (Sept. 30 to Nov. 30) and that members plan additional DOC facility visits and targeted meetings in the fall to finish recommendations.
Sen. Will Brownsberger updated commissioners that the panel had placed a change to its statutory reporting deadline in the senate's budget language, moving the deadline from Sept. 30 to Nov. 30 pending final appropriations.
"We have extended that for 2 months to November 30," Brownsberger said, noting the extension is included in pending general appropriations language and not yet final. He said the extra time will allow the commission to complete remaining DOC facility visits and convene focused meetings (including on mental-health issues) in the fall to finalize the report.
Members agreed to use the summer for background work and to reconvene for tours and a final drafting period in the fall. Commissioners also discussed formal outreach to the judiciary and district attorneys and recommended documenting outreach attempts to demonstrate efforts to solicit their input.
