needed. Carried.
Motion by O'Connell, 2nd by Boche to add $505 to the Educational
Telephone Network budget. A billing for $1500 was received and
only $995 was budgeted. Carried.
Clues Maintenance Fund: Loney said District Attorney, Emergency
Communications, Jail, Shers Dept. and Victim Witness all
budgeted a CLUES maintenance fee for a total of $2650.
Krizek said this fund should not be a supplement for outside users
and a good guideline for use of this fund is needed. Supr. Giese
advised these dues are set up for municipalities to join this
system and is not to buy equipment but only to maintain the CLUES
system.
O'Connell asked who authorized this $50 per terminal fee charge.
Information Services Committee was not included in this decision.
Giese replied it was instituted when the CLUES program was started.
Supr. Raymond said the Sheriff's Dept. and Information Services did
not see the need for this fee which is not enough for maintenance
or to buy new equipment.
Supr. Dowd commented the City of Hudson and the Village of North
Hudson are on the CLUES systems but it should be available to other
municipalities in the county. New Richmond, Glenwood City and
Baldwin have all budgeted for computers to enable them to join.
Krizek said the actual maintenance contract for CLUES totals
$18,000. Raymond suggested holding the dollars and study what
would be a rational fee.
Motion by Bradley, 2nd by O'Connell to suspend this assessing for
CLUES maintenance fees and study the issue further. Carried.
Closed Session: Motion by O'Connell, 2nd by Boche to move into
closed session per WI Statute, 19.85 (1)(e) to conduct specified
public business where competitive or bargaining reasons require a
closed session.
Motion by O'Connell to come out of closed session. Action from
