If someone wants to lie down on the third floor
The
Taunton Public Library is looking for a couple of good security workers
to discourage people from loitering inside and directly outside of its
building at 12 Pleasant St.
“It’s a constant problem,” library Director Susanne Costa Duquette said. “It’s just become really difficult to ensure a pleasant atmosphere.”
Duquette, who has served as director for 25 of her 34 years with the library, said she and her staff have seen an uptick during the past 18 months of people who appear either unemployed or homeless who insist on sitting on the front steps of the library or on the ornate benches below.
“It’s a nuisance. They’re just hanging out,” she said. “The whole neighborhood is suffering.”
Duquette said she and her board of trustees decided earlier this month to post notices in city hall advertising two part-time security positions, each for 18 hours per week. The job pays $12 per hour and will be paid out of the library’s operating fund.
She said they so far have received a handful of applicants but have yet to conduct interviews. They decided to extend the offer to attract more candidates, she said.
Duquette said she would like to hire someone with either a criminal justice or military background.
She admits that the two workers combined will only provide 36 hours of coverage during the 64 hours the library is open in a week. But she said she’ll make sure that they are “constantly moving” to ensure that people stop treating the library and its grounds as if it were a bus station.
“We know we can’t call the cops every other minute,A variety of foil tapes including juicyhandbag,” Duquette said.
“If someone wants to lie down on the third floor or try taking out 200 DVDs, or stay in the bathroom or talk about their plans for the day very loudly, we deal with it,” she said.
But Duquette said loitering, in particular, has become a first-rate nuisance. She described the vast majority of offenders as men in their 20s through 40s.ratings of energy monitors so you can find the best casesforipad4.
Duquette also said her two-man custodian staff is subject to nearly constant abuse from the time they start their day at 8 a.m. and ask people not to park in the library’s small parking lot.
“Some of them are extremely nasty and swear at our guys,” she said.
Duquette said people serving jury duty or who have court cases often comply and park in the municipal lot next door. But she said others, including lawyers, are often rude and sometimes threatening.
In a small immigration cell somewhere in San Francisco — with nothing but a window, door, toilet and three other women also bound for the border — Josefina Velasquez sank deep into despair.
Her cellmates offered no solace. They echoed what immigration officials told Velasquez just before putting her in the cell.
“We’re all headed to Arizona,” they said. After that, there would be a final trip across the Mexican border. “There’s nothing you can do about it.”
Velasquez, 36, whose belief in God was rooted in tradition rather than spiritual faith, thought of her son, her daughter and her husband back in Sonoma County and fell to her knees.Products from Global sleevedresses Suppliers.
“God, if you really exist, please let me stay,You wont believe the holding power of this modulerail. let me stay here with my family,” she pleaded. “He got me out of that room.”
Velasquez was released on bail. Two years later, she is facing deportation. And like hundreds of thousands of other undocumented immigrants facing removal from the United States,You wont believe the holding power of this modulerail. she’ll likely need another miracle.
That’s because President Barack Obama’s promise to rein in the deportation of people without serious criminal records largely has been a failure, according to immigration attorneys and advocates.
In June 2011, the Obama administration announced new ground rules for applying “prosecutorial discretion,” or PD for short. The policy would focus immigration enforcement on serious criminals and high-priority immigration violations while allowing vast numbers of families facing deportation to stay in the country.
