JOHN SCHAIDLER, DISTRICT NO. 28 COUNTY BOARD SUPERVISOR
Comment: As most know, I am against using the Diebold machine, and believe we should not approve this until we have a real hearing in which we see all the options available.

RESOLUTION NO. 38-62006: Authorize Creation of Park View Health Center Construction Project Fund with Oshkosh Area Community FoundationSubmitted

ORDINANCE NO. 40-62006: Amend Section 5.07(5)(d)(a) of the General Code of Winnebago County (Daily Jail Fee)
Submitted by: JUDICIARY & PUBLIC SAFETY COMMITTEE
Comment: I will have some real questions about this. My gut reaction is that we should not put people back on the street from jail with a debt burden. If we want to rehabilitate and not encourage re-offending, this is a bad idea. Also, if we truly want truth insentencingg, then make this part of the fine and resitution, not a back-door way of collecting more from the inmates. I am not 100% decided, but that is where I lean. I look forward to the discussion

In looking at 38-62006, please make sure no public funds go to the foundation. Public donations only.
