Mr. Chairman, the Member should know that the far side of the facility has never been fenced. There is a requirement to secure the public from inmates wandering off when they are not supposed to but also to keep unwanted and unauthorized visitors from coming onto the property. I think this is one of the bigger considerations. I do not know if it has ever been substantiated but I know there is a fear that people are coming in and dropping off things like drugs and other substances for inmates on the property. We need to secure the facility to make sure these type of things do not happen. Those are some of the considerations for wanting to fence the remainder of the facility.
