COUNTY OFFICIALS DISCUSS LEGISLATIVE AGENDA AT STATE CAPITOL

0

 

INDIANAPOLIS – Vanderburgh County Commissioners Bruce Ungethiem and Cheryl Musgrave were among about 300 county officials from around the state who attended the Association of Indiana Counties’ (AIC) 2017 County Legislative Conference last week.

County officials met with their legislators to express their concerns about local government issues at this two-day event sponsored by the AIC. The event was held at the Hyatt Regency Indianapolis in downtown Indianapolis Jan. 31 and Feb. 1. The AIC staff briefed county officials on legislation that would have an impact on local road funding, both at the state and local level. Members were also briefed on bills that would impact property assessment, tax sales, elections, drainage issues, and funding of local criminal incarceration.

Participants received an update from National Association of Counties Executive Director Matt Chase who discussed the new congress and the administration’s policies related to county government. Workshop topics addressed cyber security issues and pre-trial release related to substance abuse measures and sentencing reform.

County officials also heard from Indiana Governor Eric Holcomb, State Auditor Tera Klutz and State Treasurer Kelly Mitchell. Indiana Fiscal Policy Institute President John Ketzenberger also provided an update of the state’s finances.

Indiana State Police Participates  in Tri-State Human Trafficking Initiative 

0


Indianapolis – Troopers and Motor Carrier Inspectors with the Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Division (CVED) of the Indiana State Police joined neighboring states to raise awareness about human trafficking during the week of January 23rd through the 27th. The Indiana State Police, Ohio State Highway Patrol and the Michigan State Police take the crime of human trafficking seriously and will continue to educate the public and enforce laws that crack down on traffickers.

The goal of the week-long Tri-State Human Trafficking Initiative was to train and educate those in a position to see human trafficking taking place, such as motor vehicle drivers, public transportation companies, rest area attendants and truck stop employees.  ISP personnel focused on educating commercial motor vehicle (CMV) drivers through presentations at company safety meetings, and speaking with drivers and employee’s at rest stops, truck stops and ISP scale facilities across the state.

These individuals can act as the eyes and ears of Indiana’s highways, and by teaching them the signs of human trafficking and how to report it, they are yet another resource to protect humans from trafficking and exploitation. 

While no recoveries were reported during the weeklong event, the ISP CVED conducted 20 presentations to over 700 people and distributed over 3,280 window decals, wallet cards and brochures during the events and individual contact with CMV drivers. 

“Truckers Against Trafficking is an organization founded by truckers to combat human trafficking across North America. Commercial motor vehicle drivers are in unique position to help law enforcement identify suspected human trafficking as they perform their daily duties across the nation,” said Captain Jon Smithers of the Indiana State Police. “Truck stops and rest parks have historically been utilized by human and sex traffickers and CMV drivers have the opportunity to be the eyes and ears of law enforcement in these locations.”

To report a trafficking tip, call the National Human Trafficking Hotline Resource Center at 888-373-7888 or text BeFree to 233733. The toll free number is available anywhere in the US, 24/7. To learn more about Human Trafficking or request a presentation for your group, business or organization contact the Indiana State Police Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Division at (317) 615-7373.

EVSC to Fund New Track at Enlow Stadium

0

Tonight (Feb. 6), the Evansville Vanderburgh School Corporation announced it will fund a new six-lane track at Enlow Stadium.

“We are so excited to be able to offer Bosse students a brand new track,” said David Smith, EVSC Superintendent. “Enlow Stadium is such a beautiful landmark and an important part of our city and Bosse High School’s history. We are dedicated to making this a first-class facility for future generations.”

Enlow Stadium was constructed in 1926 and has served thousands of students throughout the years. To help keep the history of Enlow Stadium alive and fund future improvements, the EVSC and EVSC Foundation kicked off the Keep Bosse First campaign. Keep Bosse First will maintain the historic structure of the stadium but also provide improvements to the existing structure and new tennis courts. Donations for Keep Bosse First are now being accepted by the EVSC Foundation.

The new track is scheduled to be completed by Fall 2017.

A MUST READ AFTERNOON “IS IT TRUE”

3

IS IT TRUE that the Evansville City Council is considering throwing good money at a declining business sector out on Green River Road?…the owners of the former JC Penney Home store that has seen much turnover is hoping for a tax phase in on a 20 year old building that will cost taxpayers $77,000?…the City of Evansville like many other cities are considering continuing to place their bets on the rapidly declining business model known as brick and mortar retail?…Internet shopping has taken considerable market share from traditional stores and will continue to do so until at some point in the future there will be no brick and mortar retail for non perishable items?…all of the usual suspects like GAGE and some obsolete elected officials can fight this trend to their last breath, but that die is cast and throwing taxpayer money at bricks and mortar is increasingly becoming a fool’s errand?

IS IT TRUE that the subject of consolidation is spinning in the region again, so the CCO would like to remind our readers just why the Vandigov initiative failed by 3:1 and the 2012 effect failed by 2:1?…the reality is that the people of the county and city are demographically as different as summer and winter?…the City of Evansville by virtue of a half century of neglect is still on the hook for sewers, water pipes, road maintenance, and sidewalk upgrades that will cost the people of Evansville $2 Billion over the next generation?…these major self inflicted expenses will not benefit the people who live outside of the city limits?…we must ask, is it any wonder that the people in the unincorporated county don’t want to bail out a century of failures by the City of Evansville?…while it is true that nearly every economic statistic would improve for the City of Evansville in a merger, it is also true that every financial statistic for the unincorporated areas will decline by merging with the less wealthy, less educated, and poorly managed City of Evansville?
