SHELBY COUNTY — A Public Safety Project Committee has been formed to discuss the future of the Shelby County Jail.
Jail Administrator Kyle Lindberg discussed the need for the committee at the Shelby County Board of Supervisors and the Harlan City Council meetings Tuesday, April 1.
Lindberg said recent jail inspections have drawn attention to infrastructure and safety issues at the current jail, which was built in 1983.
We can’t control the influx of crime.”The committee will consists of 13 members, and will include entities from county public safety agencies, county officials, and representatives from the City of Harlan.
Lindberg is currently looking for three civilian committee members from Shelby County who live outside of Harlan.
