Field notes
The page separates the ballot’s wording from the stated use of the proceeds, then compares county statements with its own reading of the record. Its calculations include a construction-cost-per-bed estimate and a per-resident estimate based on the 2020 Census population. The sources list includes county materials, local reporting, government data, and research on court reminders and mental-health crisis response.
