Following up on the Stockton Record story about UC Cooperative Extension discussions of restructuring in the Mother Lode counties, the Sonora-based Union Democrat did a follow-up story.
In the Aug. 6 Union Democrat, Michael Kay writes: "Possible changes include reducing the number of county directors by putting one person in charge of multiple counties and cutting office space for all but the most active local programs."
