Voters in Clay County will vote in November on a forty-two-million-dollar bond issue to build a new law enforcement – jail complex.
Sheriff Andy Howe says they are operating a very outdated jail now….

Howe says they can only hold prisoners for a short term now….

Howe says they have to find space in other counties for their prisoners….

A similar bond issue was defeated last year.
Howe was a guest on “Drivetime with Von & Steve” on 570 WNAX.
