It's Your Money

But the government spends it

A A A Comments By R. SCOTT MOXLEY Thursday, Aug 9 2007

In late June, the Orange County Board of Supervisors agreed that the hundreds of thousands of dollars they'd already spent on a fence at Juvenile Hall wasn't good enough. Now, they've decided to spend an additional $998,000 for a new, taller perimeter fence. That figure is a whopping 46 percent more than estimated costs.
