Jueces se Paz tratan tema de infracciones
En la junta de corte de comisionados del pasado lunes asistieron todos los jueces de paz para dar su reporte de trabajo del mes de Junio. La que fue mas alabada fue la Juez de Paz Dora Madera del Precinto 2 ya que en el mes de Junio tuvo aproximadas 300 ticketes de infracciones.
El Comisionado Ruiz le preguntó qué como había estado el 4 de Julio y ella contestó que hubo muchos ticketes pero estos son solo del mes de Junio.
La carretera de El Indio tiene mucho trafico por la area tan poblada y tambien por las personas que van al Casino y es por eso que se dan muchos ticketes. Los demas Jueces se quejan de que los diputados no estan dando multas dependiento el precinto donde se encuentren, por ejemplo; camino 480 por el puente 2 es del precinto 4, de El Indio Hwy y 277 es del precinto 1, de Hwy 57 a Hwy 277 es precinto 4, por eso el sheriff Schmerber dio instrucciones al jefe de diputados Rick Fuentes para que los diputados cuando den infracciones sepan el precinto.
Es algo complicado porque los precintos se junta en muy pocas distancias, lo que buscan es que haya igualdad y que cada juez haga su trabajo de cobrar las infracciones.

At Monday's Commissioner's Court meeting, all five Justices of the Peace were front and center making their presentations to the court and JP Dora Madera in particular was commended for her traffic in terms of citations issued which report to her office.
When you take into consideration the fact that the Kickapoo Lucky Eagle Casino is in her precinct, you can understand why this is so, however, some of the other justices have brought it to our attention that some of the byways that run in and around the area are technically not in Precinct 2 which when asked about this, Sheriff Tom Schmerber stated that he would advise Chief Deputy Rick Fuentes to look into the matter and advise all officers to be very careful as to what precinct they are in when issuing citations.
"It is very technical as different parts of Loop 480, for example cross over precinct boundary lines and yes, there are many citations given on FM 1021 (El Indio Highway) due to the heavy traffic coming from and going to the casino, so that is understandable," added the sheriff.
Another matter of interest mentioned by Sheriff Schmerber is that of residents parking in and around the Seco Road area in Seco Mines. The sheriff says that the curbs have been painted in and around an ambulance service there, warnings have been issued, however, deputies have been advised to begin giving citations for parking in this area.
"Signs have been posted as well and it is very dangerous for motorists coming out to 277, so if you're parking here, you will be cited."
JP Madera said that her office received 300 citations in the month of June, a figure which County Commissioner Robert Ruiz mentioned also informed Commissioner's Court that the Fourth of July weekend was extremely busy and many more citations were issued than in the month of June.
