$110M Chino prison project outlined

Only 110 million?
It's only MILLIONS. California budget deficit projected 20 BILLION in 2010.

Hey there "yates", it aint all about you. Its about funding that stupid little city for the next 20 years. Your just mad you and your cronies can't make any land scheme money off of it. The dairy farmer pigs that you alligned yourself with have sold out and gone north, and left you and the citizens with TOXIC SOIL! Your a pig just like anyone else$$

Millions for Prisons--cuts for education? Something is not right!

With the bad economy this is great news for all the local merchants. Why does the mayor oppose new sales tax revenues?

thats bllshyt maybe they shold stop sending people to prison for bllshyt reasons and keep the real animals in there with nothing ... let their families send them stuff

First the mayor cries about the State building it's own hospital at CIM. Now he's crying about the state using Chino's hospital.

Stop the crazy "war on drugs" and there will be much less crime, and less need for prison space.

"Corrections officials told city officials this week that the Stark renovation would house about 1,800 adults and a new reception center facility onsite would house about 950 inmates."

Maybe what Chino and every other site that CDCR wants to put inmates in should ask the same question my husband asked in the 1980's when they tried to put a prison in Madera.

What guarantee do we have that this prison will not be overpopulated within 2 years just like every other California prison? What guarantee do we have that the overcrowding will not deplete our water resources or that it will not cause pollution?

Not ONE of the prison officials at the meeting could respond to those questions.

Here it is 25 years later and every California prison is STILL overcrowded and many are responsible for pollution in the communities they are in.

"an influx of new correctional officers"
sounds like the the Chino riot paid off?
