Body
OVERVIEW
The 2023-2024 San Diego County Grand Jury recently completed its term and filed two reports with recommendations requiring a response from the County.
California Penal Code Section 933(c) requires:
* That the governing body of agencies that are the subject of Grand Jury reports respond in writing to the Findings and Recommendations addressed to such agencies; and
* Elected officials such as the Sheriff respond on behalf of their respective agencies.

* Cannabis in San Diego - How is it Going?
* Dog Bites in San Diego County
