Miss Beharry made reference to the total billings for weekend and work -re-
lease prisoners and the total received and stated that we are looking at the same'
problem that Mr. Paluso brought to the Board's attention two months ago. She
noted that she has re -submitted the provisions of law which requires the Board
to collect the money from weekenders and work -release prisoners and to take the
room and board set by the Commissioners off the top and to distribute the rest of
it, Miss Beharry suggested that the Board implement that procedure and evaluate
the provisions of law that requires the Board to do so. Miss Beharry made some
comments regarding this matter.
