It is much cheaper for an offender to be to be supervised than it is to throw them in jail. For that reason and due to increasing demands for its services, the short-handed Central Kansas Community Corrections requested the addition of an extra supervisor.A divided Barton County Commission Monday morning, Jan. 5, granted that request. It approved the hiring of another intensive supervision officer for CKCC.“We are making a positive change,” said CKCC Director Amy Boxberger.
