<br />D. Response from Cities for a New Police Facility <br />The discussion was wide-ranging and lengthy. Commissioner Korst asked where each <br />City was in regards to a new police facility. Commissioner Swedberg stated that <br />Centerville was not in support of a new facility and could not commit to a 20-year <br />obligation given the financial. state of the City of Centerville. <br /> <br />Commissioner Heifort raised the higher cost of police services for Lexington residents <br />and stated most of the budget now goes for police. <br /> <br />Several comments were expressed about the uncertainty of state support for local <br />government aide with tre state facing a $3 billion shortfall in the next biennium. The <br />state is seriously looking at elimination of municipal aids including fire and police aids. <br /> <br />The discussion focused on no action or building a new facility in Circle Pines. The <br />discussion did not adequately address the myriad alternatives that exist between these <br />two points. <br /> <br />Commissioner Grahek remarked that the discussion related to jail holding cells is <br />premature because the Department is just now collecting that data. <br /> <br />Questions were raised as what exactly is needed and in what priority - holding cells, <br />evidence lockers, garage space, clerical support space, meeting or training rooms, <br />computer rooms, interrogation rooms, booking, fingerprinting, photographic, and breath <br />testing areas and many more. <br /> <br />!t appears that the Commission does not have authority to bond as noted by a letter to <br />the Commission from the Administra.tors of Circle Pine, Lexington and Centerville. <br /> <br />The Chief remarked that the issue has been previously studied and this is a high priority <br />in his view. <br /> <br />No decision or action was taken. <br /> <br />E. Letter of Resignation from Commissione Secretary Bobbi Ward <br />Motion: <br />Commissioner Grahek made a motion to immediately accept the resignation and the <br />motion was seconded by Commissioner Korst. The motion was unanimouslv <br />approved. <br /> <br />Interim Action Taken: <br />In the interim, Tim Swedberg will take the minutes and the Chief will ask Timesavers <br />about a contract to take the minutes in the future. <br /> <br />'7 <br />
