County to seek property outside Soledad for state prison re-entry facility

Trying to reach a compromise and avoid potential delays or lawsuits, the Monterey County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday directed Sheriff Mike Kanalakis to list two sites near Soledad in a proposal to the state — but make clear they are considering other, as-yet-unknown locations.
