MEMORANDUM

TO: JUDGE BUDDY VILLINES, III

FROM: MIKE HUTCHENS, DIRECTOR OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES

DATE: JULY 10, 2014

RE: WORK RELEASE CENTER CONTRACT

Some discussion has developed in regards to the $ 1. 00 proposed as the cost to lease the Work Release Center.The question has been asked" why not make money off of the facility?". As you know, I preach LOWEREXPENSES, LOWER EXPENSES, LOWER EXPENSES. That' s what this agreement will do. When 125 stateprisoners are removed from the facility, we will save the $ 15. 52 per day we loose by housing said prisoner. Ourcost per day is$ 43. 52 per prisoner. This is a lowered expense and will free up beds to incarcerate PulaskiCounty prisoners. Also, the building is vacant, but we do maintain maintenance on the building, which is anexpense. This will lower that expense because under the terms of the contract, the responsibility falls to thestate.

Additionally, to clear up any confusion regarding the billing of state prisoners, here is a quick summary of howthat works. Usually at the first of each month the ADC sends us invoices on all the inmates they had acceptedfrom us the previous month. Each inmate invoice reflects either the day the inmate was committed to ADC orthe day the commitment paperwork was approved by the ADC till the day they are sent to the ADC. Once aninmate is committed by Circuit Court to the ADC the Prosecutors Office prepares the commitment order for thejudge to sign reflecting the sentence the judge has given the inmate when they were committed. TheProsecutor' s Office then sends the commitment paperwork to the ADC for their review, if the paperwork isapproved by the ADC within twenty-one ( 21) days of commitment( see ACA 12- 27- 114) we are compensatedby the state from the day of commitment till the day they arrive at the ADC. If the committing paperwork is notapproved until after the twenty-one ( 21) day time period, the state will only reimburse us from the date thepaperwork is approved till the date the inmate arrives at the ADC. The state computes our payment on aTwenty-eight( 28) dollar a day basis as set by state law. The county does not receive payment for the time thestate inmate is housed in the Pulaski County jail UNTIL the inmate is taken to ADC.

GRANDCHILD OF THE FOREST

My grandfather, Herbert C. Rule, came to Arkansas with his wife, Idazora, in the mid- 1890's fromeastern Iowa with a group ofmen who founded the Crossett Lumber Co. He became its first Secretary-Treasurer and helped guide the complicated development of south Arkansas virgin timberland in itsearly days until his untimely death from tuberculosis in 1905 at the tender age of 38. A few years latermy gritty, widowed grandmother moved with her three young children to Little Rock where she livedin the still-standing Abeles Apts in the 1400 block of Louisiana. She became a pillar of the communityas a founder of the Women's City Club, the first woman on the AR Women's Prison Bd and a Sundayschool leader at 1St Methodist Church, etc., etc. The pulpit Bible there is dedicated in her memory.

Herbert had encouraged Crossett Lumber to forge a close relationship with the Yale School of Forestrywhich led to the pioneering implementation of progressive re-forestation policies. Previously,lumbermen clear cut the plentiful southern yellow pine forest land and moved on. Crossett Lumberdecided that re- forestation was a wiser use of resources and a more efficient guarantee of profit. Partlyas a by-product of this relationship, my uncle, father, older brother, a cousin, a nephew and myselfattended Yale College. During the Great Depression my uncle and dad opened a furniture store at 7thand Arch with part of their timber inheritance that more or less thrived into the 1960's.

So, one could say, trees ( and lumber products) are in my genetic roots.

One of my earliest memories is sitting in our yard wondering when the big pecan tree would startdropping the autumn crop; later the joy of harvesting and eating more of them than my big brother. Mymother was a serious gardener so we were surrounded by lovely spring-flowering trees I would helpcare for. During frequent summer droughts they required special attention. During graduate schooldays in California in the 60's I became an avid tree- hugger and worshiped as frequently as possible insacred, awe- inspiring groves of redwood and sequoia.

Soon after returning to Little Rock in the early '70' s, I bought some lots near a friends place on a ridgeoverlooking the south shore of Greer's Ferry Lake. Though never built upon( and now compromisedby nearby fracking activity), I have spent countless hours there, inspired by the incredible view overthe lake and carefully tending and pruning the numerous and varied arborial inhabitants that frame it.

Thru the ensuing years, until 2006 I owned homes in Little Rock's historic Quapaw Quarter, Hillcrestand Kingwood neighborhoods. The appearance and enjoyment of all, I can say immodestly, wereenhanced by the careful care I took of surrounding trees.

Last week I received a rather hefty check from Roselawn Cemetery to resolve a" misunderstanding"that arose over the Rule family plot after the death of my beloved sister six years ago. It is locatedunderneath an imposing 75- 100 year old oak. To satisfy her burial wishes and plan for the future, itmade sense to buy some adjacent spaces that were also available. I was assured that utilizing the

spaces which almost abutted the tree, even for full-length burials, would have no adverse affect on itslongevity. Not long after my sister's burial and later visitations I began to question the validity of thatassessment. I looked around and saw many of the great trees in the cemetery dead or dying most withtombstones marking burials right up to the trunk of the tree. Having moved to a condo in Maumelle' sFairway Woods in the fall of 2006, to be closer to, and hopefully finally build at, Greers Ferry andhaving taken a tree care class by Pete Bausch, I asked him to assess the grave/tree situation atRoselawn. His conclusions( attached) confirmed my concerns.Last week, after years of wrangle, Roselawn refunded a large portion of the original purchase price ofthe plots and took back others near the base of the tree that were also legally designated for use ascremains only in perpetuity.

A proud old post oak, symbol of the Tree of Life, now has a better chance to live out its natural lifeguarding and shading the remains of Idazora, Herbert, Jr., Uncle John, cousin Bill, numerous otheraunts, uncles, cousins and no doubt those of my brother and me all ofwhom were/are and willcontinue to be nourished and significantly sustained by my grandfather' s investment of self andresources in the Crossett Lumber Company over a hundred years ago.

And, as I sit at my window writing this and looking out over river and passing barges and Riverland'sMaumelle Heights park from our new residence at 24 Crystal Mt. Dr., I want to do what I can at age 71to make sure that its trees are well cared for and that all Maumelle trees get the ongoing attention theydeserve as one of our community's greatest natural resources.

This summer I watered the dogwood at Lake Willastein for a week and have taken part in other parkactivities and rehabs over the years. Terry Jones has recommends my Tree Board application asPresident of the Friends of Lake Willastein( [email protected]). My next door neighborat Fairway Woods, Burch Johnson, former mayor of Maumelle and present city board member, alsosupports my application( [email protected]). I also get a nod from Pete Rausch, arboristextraordinaire, whose business is based in Maumelle( [email protected]).

So, please accept this as an application for a position on the Maumelle Tree Board. I will be happy toprovide you with a more formal resume upon request if necessary.

5 November 2008

Dear Mr. Rule,

At your request, I inspected a tree at Roselawn Cemetery in Little Rock. The tree is in an area ofconcern to you in that the tree may be subject to injury due to nearby burials.

The subject tree is a Post oak( Quercus stellata) thirty-five inches in diameter, approximatelysixty feet tall and it' s age is estimated to be between eighty and one hundred ten years. The treeis in very good condition with no major structural defects, though some natural dead branchesare present and should be removed with proper pruning. No sign of disease or insect pests werenoted. The tree has been open grown resulting in a large, spreading and well balanced crown.

The nearest burial plots were placed in 1955 as noted on the inscriptions. Future burials, asindicated in the plot diagrams provided, would put excavation as close as one foot to the base ofthe tree. Any further excavations would extensively sever and damage the roots of the large tree.The root severing would disconnect the flow of water and nutrients to the tree. As a result ofroot damage of this type, the typical response ofa tree is death at the branch ends, progressinginwards towards the main trunk over a period of one to three growing seasons. Depending onhow many roots are severed, death of the tree could occur within this time. Another concernwith roots being severed close to the trunk is a significant reduction in stability and the clearpotential for this tree to fail at the ground level and fall, likely causing damage to nearby gravesand possible personal injury.

In my opinion, this large, mature tree would likely succumb to dieback, death or windthrow ifany additional excavations are made within one to ten feet of it' s base. I have included someinformation for you to reference. Please feel free to contact me at any time should you havequestions or require further information.
