Ms. Gerry Rismoen gave a <br />presentation to the Commission on behalf of department employees. Ms. Rismoen <br />outlined both immediate health and safety concerns and the need for long-term <br />solutions to facility problems. <br /> <br />In the letter employees' state, "We have respectfully requested that a new police <br />facility be constructed." They also request, "that an outside consultant <br />immediately be retained to evaluate the liabilities of our current facilities and to <br />assess the costs necessary to add to our present location those areas that are <br />essential to our safety and well being." <br /> <br />Following are the notes taken of Ms. Rismoen's comments before the Commission. <br />They were not presented as priorities, but a list of concerns. <br /> <br />1. The facility was originally built for 8 people <br />2. They have common bathroom facilities and prisoners use those facilities as well <br />3. They no longer have space for lockers - just a hook on the wall <br /> <br />LL <br />
