A Roadmap to Strengthening Public Safety
"Yesterday's infrastructure does not meet today's needs".
Recommendation 98 - The Panel recommends that CSC pursue undertaking capital and operating investments in a new type of regional penitentiary complex that responds to the cost efficiency and operational deficits of the current infrastructure.
Recommendation 100 - The Panel recommends that in the interim, CSC institute clear criteria to minimize authorization of retrofit projects.
