Help in Clearing Storm Drains Requested by City

postdateiconWednesday, 29 December 2010 12:07 | PDF | Print | E-mail
As the temperature jumps today, the melt-off begins. Which, coupled with forecasted rain, could cause some problems on La Crosse city streets if the melting snow has nowhere to go. That's why the city's public works department is asking for help in clearing storm drains covered by ice and snow on the road. Streets crews can't get to all of them at once, says public works director, Dale Hexom, so if you live near one of the drains, consider it a civic duty to get out a shovel and go for it. Melting snow will be the rule for the next couple of days as temps will stay in the thirties through Friday. Frigid temps expected again on Friday night and through the week-end.

Perren Could Be Committed For Sex Acts

postdateiconMonday, 27 December 2010 12:43 | PDF | Print | E-mail
A La Crosse area man will NOT be released from prison tomorrow...because the state of Wisconsin wants him to be committed as a sexual predator.

Fifty-year-old Homer Perren Junior is considered 'sexually violent' by the state justice department. Perren is finishing a 10-year prison term for the sexual assault of a child back in 2000. The state claims that Perren has a mental condition which makes him likely to commit sexual crimes again, once he's out of prison. A hearing on Perren's commitment is scheduled for next week, before La Crosse County Judge Elliott Levine.
