Fr- 'I <br />MAY 2 8 1986 BOOK 64 <br />Commissioner Wodtke suggested that the Resolution include <br />the names of the private citizens who will be appointed. <br />COMMISSIONERS LYONS AND BOWMAN AGREED TO ADD TO THEIR MOTION <br />that Terry Goff and Gary Wheeler be appointed as the two private <br />citizens to serve on this committee. <br />Commissioner Lyons felt Mr. Goff and Mr. Wheeler would be <br />good additions to the Committee as one serves on the Jail <br />Committee and has a considerable background in criminal justice <br />and the other is quite familiar with the community and exercises <br />good common sense. <br />Commissioner Bird felt that both individuals were very well <br />qualified but wondered if it would be wise or proper to place <br />them on this committee as both are in the midst of intense <br />political campaigns. <br />Commissioner Lyons advised that he informed both these <br />individuals that this committee would not meet more than once a <br />week and probably not for more than an hour because the judges <br />are very, very busy people. He felt that if it turns out to be <br />too much for these individuals, then we can make another <br />appointment. <br />Commissioner Bird felt that perhaps the Board should appoint <br />retired judges or lawyers as the private citizens to serve on the <br />committee, but it was pointed out that there are very few <br />individuals in that category in this area. <br />THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION. The Motion <br />was voted on and carried unanimously. <br />Chairman Scurlock emphasized the efforts this county has <br />made to expedite the building of a new jail and objected to the <br />editorial that appeared recently in the Press Journal which <br />implied that we have not diligently pursued this. <br />30 <br />
