TODAY IN ROTARY Gregg Whitehead, sponsored by Terance White,
was welcomed as SGR’s newest member. The
son of former Rotarian George Whitehead has a classification of Commercial
Development and Real Estate.
Washington County Attorney Brock Belnap, who manages the
criminal and civil side of the legal system, is currently involved in the county’s response to the BLM’s newly
released resource management plan … over a 1000 pages of land use
decisions. There are several big
concerns from county commissioners, mayors and other government officials
relating to the plan Belnap called “the biggest thing we are dealing with at
the moment.”
He also told members of SGR about changes to staffing at the
Children’s Justice Center since Patricia Sheffield’s recent retirement. Shelley Teeples is the newly hired Executive
Director and Brooke Triplett, a dedicated forensic interviewer, was hired last
week whose job will be to analyze information in child abuse cases gathered in
interviews appropriate for the child’s age and level of development.
Citing statistics from neighboring states, Belnap identified
Utah as the 44th lowest state in the nation for incarceration. He announced the new Justice Reinvestment
Initiative which is being rolled out to provide services to help those who can
be helped develop skills and get help to prevent recidivism … but, “we’re just
getting started in this new direction.”
