Death Row Moving to Folsom???
For the first time since FDR was president of the United States, Folsom Prison may be housing maximum-security prisoners on death row. Folsom city mayor Steve Miklos, Assembly leader Dave Cox, and other local representatives are incredibly opposed to such a move, however the Legislature is taking action to have it happen by 2007. Current inmates serve in San Quentin, however the budget crunch is causing leaders to explore other possibilities. More is in the Bee.

City Council Presents Proposals For Opening Up Dam Road
Mayor Steve Miklos and the rest of city council have appealed to Bureau of Reclamation Commissioner John W. Keys over the closure of the Folsom Dam Road. Among several alternatives include checkpoints a la Hoover Dam, access during low water periods, and public access during peak commute times. It is unknown whether or not the road will ever re-open, and if a bridge will be built in its place. More is in today's Telegraph.

How Your City Council Candidates are Raising Money
Andy Morin, a challenger to the city council openings, has decided that rather than accepting contributions from outside sources, he'd fund his campaign on his own, putting up $12,000 of his own money.

Other candidates who accepted contributions from developers include Kerri Howell and Nancy Mitchell. To check out where all the candidates got their money, see Sunday's article in the Bee.Labels: Andy Morin, Kerri Howell, Steve Miklos
