Allen County Commissioners

Allen County Commissioner Richard Beck said on Tuesday the address given was only ever intended to serve as an option for the courts.

The coalition has spoken out against building a new jail in the county, instead urging mental health treatment to solve an overcrowding issue.

The announcement comes at the deadline imposed by a federal court judge demanding something be done to ease jail population numbers.

The new trail will address the needs of horses and riders in the county.

A local community coalition is urging county commissioners to focus more on prevention and community care, rather than incarceration.
