Ind. Courts - Cass County Courthouse security upgrade
Dave Kitchell of the Pharos-Tribune writes:
Walking through the first floor of the Cass County Government Building will soon be like walking through Indianapolis International Airport.Grant money county officials received has been used to buy X-ray equipment. Two hand-held wands, an X-ray conveyor and a walk-through X-ray machine will be used at the east entrance of the building off Fourth Street.
There’s just one problem, County Commissioner Dave Arnold said Thursday. There’s no funding for the positions to man the equipment.
That will be one of the issues the Courthouse Security Committee he chairs will work out sometime soon. Arnold said the equipment would require one full-time and two part-time employees, with the full-timer and one part-timer on duty whenever the courthouse is open.
“All the county courthouses are going to higher security,” he said.
