Mr. Earl R. Walsh

McHenry, Illinois
Dear Mr. Walsh:
Senator Berning referred to me your recent letter and
accompanying resolution concerning the proposed consolidation
of the McHenry County Commission on Criminal Justice with the
Lake County C.C.J. Senator Berning shares your concern in this
matter and has asked me to pursue it.
In conversation with a representative of the Illinois
Law Enforcement Commission, I was informed that much of the
opposition to the proposed consolidation has abated. If this is
the case, we would ask you to direct us as to what further action
on our part you might consider appropriate. If this is not the
case, then we would hope to be of assistance to you either in
devising an alternative to consolidation or in consolidating with
the Commissions operating in Boone, DeKalb, and Ogle Counties.
We would certainly appreciate hearing your views on
these suggestions.
Sincerely,
a tin P. Geraght
Legislative Assistant
