SPRD: District will ask
voters for 15-cent
local option
Bend jail
worker
accused
of having
sex with
inmate
Continued from page 3
BEND (AP) — A 44-year-
old Central Oregon woman
who worked at the Deschutes
County Jail is facing charges
after authorities say she
had sex with an inmate and
brought in tobacco.
The Bulletin reports that
April Ann Hoisington-Kite
of Bend was charged Friday
with two counts of custodial
sexual misconduct and sup-
plying contraband.
Hoisington-Kite has not
been allowed back in the
jail since being cited and
released November 1.
Deschutes County
Sheriff’s Office Sgt. William
Bailey says Hoisington-Kite
was a contract employee
working through a company
called Aramark.
Bailey says Hoisington-
Kite met the inmate in the
kitchen area.
Hoisington-Kite is sched-
uled to appear in Deschutes
County Circuit Court on
Wednesday.
Glory Daze Car Show; the
Sisters Folk Festival and
Sisters Outdoor Quilt Show
would also benefit from con-
tinued and expanded support
from SPRD.
Over $270,000 of deferred
maintenance would be
addressed and the retainment
of experienced staff would
also continue with the passing
of the new levy, according to
the board of directors.
Should the vote pass, pro-
gram fees for all participants
would be reduced and pro-
vide a 50 percent cut in after-
school program fees. Families
who may need financial assis-
tance to participate would also
benefit from lowered costs.
If the levy should fail,
maintenance would remain
postponed, program fees
would increase, and some
programs would likely be
eliminated, the board reports.
The proposed levy will be
announced early next year,
and local Sisters residents will
have the opportunity to vote
for the local option in May
2018. The proposed tax levy
would span five years and
take effect on July 1, 2019.
