The Sheriff noted that he did not include in his letter that <br />he is in the process of doing some additional planning in <br />conjunction with the State Attorney's office in regard to making <br />part of this North County office available for holding first <br />appearances, etc. The object is to try to cut down the traveling <br />time required for the people in the North County area.
