streets and $7,000 in charges had not
been paid to the city," said Pepitone,
who serves as City Judge in apparent
violation of state law.
"The jail was reopened for one month
on a trial period to determine if it was
feasible to keep the jail open perman-
ently," he said, "at this point it looks
like we will be able to keep the jail
open.
Pepitone said, "Since the jail has been
opened $3,880 has been collected
from outstanding warrants. The money
was collected within a five day period by
officers who went to the homes of the
offenders and by offenders who vol-
untarily came to the police station to
pay their fines."
"The expense to keep the jail open
has amounted to $684 so far," he said,
explaining, "this includes $450 to staff
the jail, $54 for prisoners' lunches, $60
for new blankets, $]00 to have the
heater repaired and $20 to have the
door repaired."
Pepitone said "If the jail remains
open, off duty police officers and
auxiliary officers who volunteer their
time working the jail, will be paid for
their work, as they have been during
the trial period."
"If the expense to keep the jail open
justifies the amount of money the city
will receive in bond money, the jail will
most likely be kept open," he said.
Mayor Gideon said, "We are going to
keep up with this and not just put it on
the back burner."
In other action:
• "The city cannot afford to pay
somebody to work at the Collinswood
Museum," Pepitone said. The alder-
man decided that they will each try to
get two volunteers and that a letter will
be sent to the American Association of
Retired Persons to ask for their assist-
ance.
Fire Chief Erlo McLaurin presented
the annual fire report to the board.
