There were also 28 warrants issued, three assaults, three thefts and one each of the following: DUI, possession of meth, stalking order violation, parole violation, driving while suspended, criminal trespass, criminal mischief, disorderly conduct, custo- dial interference and dog as a public nuisance within the department’s jurisdiction area (does not include the city of Boardman which has its own police department). In other business at a Dec. 13 meeting the com- mission heard a report from Undersheriff John Bowles who presented an idea to of- fer transitional housing for males just released from jail or prison but still are on pa- role or probation. These in- dividuals are required to be released back to the county of conviction. Correction Lieutenant Dan Robbins explained that Oregon De- partment of Corrections is releasing inmates early to reduce the prison popula- tion. This however, shifts the burden to the counties to find places for them to stay for up to 90 days while they are under the county’s supervision. Bowles said these in- dividuals are already in our communities, often times moving from place to place when they have no family or residence. He said it makes it harder for parole and probation to monitor them. Bowles said in the past the only option was to house these people in local motels. Sheriff Ken Matlack is proposing to fix a foreclosed property in Ir- rigon owned by the county for use as transitional hous- ing, with the stipulation that no sex offenders could be there. Because there were several unanswered ques- tions surrounding this topic, Commission Chair Melissa Lindsay requested the sher- iff send the proposal to the Local Public Safety Coor- dinating Council with pos- sible action by that group. In other action the commission reappointed Don Russell to the Colum- bia River Enterprise Zone board, with Greg Sweek as the alternate. The commission also heard that Kathy Neal had resigned from the Morrow County Planning Commis- sion. Planner Carla McLane said Bobbi Childers from Ione had expressed interest in being on the planning commission, but at this time there are no vacant positions there. The com- mission discussed ways to use the at-large position to shift representation for current members and that a south county member might be resigning which would open up a vacancy for Childers to serve. The Boardman vacancy created by Neal’s resignation is still unfilled with no interest expressed from the com- munity, McLane said. The commission voted to reap- point planning commission members Mifflin Devin and Rod Taylor. In other discussion the commission heard from Boardman Police Chief Rick Stokoe, who talked about the situation regard- ing people with mental health issues and under the influence of controlled substances, who find them- selves incarcerated. Stokoe said these people are often out of control but cannot be treated because they are under the influence. He said in most cases they do not belong in jail but are there because of no other alternatives. He said these people cannot be housed in the general jail population but jails do not have the staff to deal with the issues. Stokoe said these people often take up space in the jail that needs to be used for people who have com- mitted a crime, but there is no space available. Stokoe said this is a nationwide problem ex- plaining that in the past there were facilities for detox and then that treat- ment went away “many years ago.” He said he met with Representative Greg Smith who plans to convene a meeting between law en- forcement and legislators to address these issues. Stokoe asked the commissioners to consider drafting a letter of support if the need arises. Commissioner Doherty said he would support Chief Sto- koe’s efforts to find funds at the state level. -MCSO received a re- port on SE Skyline Dr, Heppner that a large brown fat Malamute with a curly tail ran off and hasn’t come home yet, dog is not at all aggressive. -MCSO received a re- port on I 84 E, Boardman that there is a trucker on her tail and crowding cars going 85+.
