CALIFORNIA IN BRIEF : MARIPOSA : Budget Crisis May Close Youth Camp
From Times Staff and Wire Reports
A youth offender camp near Mariposa is one of four California Youth Authority mountain camps that may close as a result of the state’s budget crisis. Shutting the Mt. Bullion camp is one way to trim $50 million from the department’s budget, said spokeswoman Sarah Andrade. But she stressed that no decisions are certain. Mt. Bullion serves about 100 inmates age 18 to 25. The other three camps on the possible closure list are near Santa Cruz, Nevada City and Pine Grove.
