Chino Hills Mayor Art Bennett and Chino Mayor Dennis Yates have signed a joint letter sent to Gov. Jerry Brown regarding their concern over security cutbacks at California Institution for Men in Chino.
The mayors state they are worried about reduced security measures, including a significant reduction in staffing on armed and manned towers as well as a reduction in armed perimeter patrols.
"We are very aware of the State's on-going budget problems however; reducing security measures in a prison located within the heart of a densely populated community is unacceptable," the mayors wrote.
"We are very familiar with the State's prison realignment plan and although there are fewer inmates within the facility, the most serious offenders remain incarcerated, indicating that any reduction in security is unwarranted.
"We have been advised that the previously mentioned security measures will remain in place however, we would like to go on record stating that the communities of Chino and Chino Hills would not support a future reduction in security at CIM."

This guy with the "y" name, and all of his local business interest's and business pals, has been making noise sitting on the middle of the fence for years. He has found financial and political comfort on this very subject for quite some time. He usually magically appears after a riot, when the cameras and cops are out there on Central, so don't be fooled again by such gibber.
ReplyDeleteThat's ridiculous having TWO mayors for the same area. Sounds like another town called "Vernon"! Have they illegally inflated their salaries and salary reports to CalPers so they can get some of that $400,000.00 pension action? You local citizens should check up on this.
ReplyDeleteSOS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDelete@7:01 am Chino and Chino Hills are 2 different cities therefore 2 different mayors.
ReplyDeleteOh I see, just like Los Angeles and EAST Los Angeles! What an F'in scam. This is exactly why this state is bankrupt.
ReplyDeleteEast Los Angeles is IN Los Angeles. It's not a city. Derrrrrr! Uh, what about 2 Carolinas??!! dumbass!!!""
DeleteAre the Mayors invited to the town hall meeting on Fri ? They should be to be more informed on the safety and staffing levels.
