The Need for an addition to the La Crosse
County Law Enforcement Center
Since opening the Law Enforcement Center in 1997, the
County has operated three separate jail facilities: the Main Jail
housing male inmates, the old Jail for housing female inmates and a
Huber (work release) facility. Over these past nine years, the
County has made significant investments in Justice Sanctions
programs like Day Reporting and Electronic Monitoring to reduce the
need for additional jail beds. As a result, the County has closed
the Huber facility and placed low risk inmates in the community with
supervision. La Crosse County needs to consolidate operations for
greater efficiency, safety and effectiveness for the long-term
future. |
