“READERS FORUM” MAY 14, 2019

5

We hope that today’s “READERS FORUM” will provoke honest and open dialogue concerning issues that we, as responsible citizens of this community, need to address in a rational and responsible way.

HERE’S WHAT’S ON OUR MIND TODAY

The Vanderburgh County Commissioners will have a public meeting today following their regular meeting to discuss the Vanderburgh County jail expansion. This meeting will involve all three County Commissioners, all seven members of County Council, the Vanderburgh County Sheriff, the Building Authority General Manager and the lead design team of American Structure Point. This meeting will decide the size, scope, and design of the  Vanderburgh County jail renovation project.  The public is invited to attend.

It is our hope that the powers that be will agree on a new jail design that will be meet the current and future needs of the Vanderburgh County  Sheriff Office for a least the next 25 years?

WHAT’S ON YOUR MIND TODAY?

Todays “Readers’ Poll” question is: What type of renovation should the county do to the jail?

  1. Build the new Jail. Keep the criminals inside the jail. Build it better than any other jail. Build it with some “compassion” for the mentally ill. Build it strong to keep the worst of the worst inside. Build it so it will last a long time. Build it to keep the citizens and victims of the criminals safe. Build it to keep all the jail employees safe.

    • Thanks for your concern. Read tomorrow CCO and you will get a detailed answer to your question.

      Thanks for reading the CCO.

  2. Did anyone figure out why the Water and Sewer Utility bought the park at 400 Main St for $450,000 and it is now shown owned by the Parks Dept., although there is no deed transfer shown from the Water and Sewer Utility?
