WISCONSIN - Kristin Charles has children who attend Foxview Intermediate School, and she is concerned about a new parole and probation office located across the street. "I'm doing everything as a parent to keep them safe," she told the City Council on Tuesday. " … it seems illogical to put them in this situation." Charles and a handful of others urged the council to reconsider a recent agreement with the Wisconsin Department of Corrections to lease space in the De Pere Police Department for a parole and probation office. They presented the council with a petition signed by 343 people and said they will continue to reach out to neighbors and other residents. "I hope you'll take this seriously," said Toni Etter, who has two grandchildren that attend nearby Notre Dame School. "This does not belong near schools or churches." The City Council approved the one-year lease, which includes a two-year option, at its Dec. 2 meeting. Council members made no comment and took no action after the petition was presented Tuesday. The item was not on Tuesday's agenda, so they couldn't take an official vote, but they also gave no indication it would be discussed in the near future. Read more.
