WI: New Petition Wants Exclusion Zones Extended to 1500 feet.
An online petition is circulating in Chippewa Falls that would change important city ordinances towards sex offenders. If approved, it would increase the distance a sex offender can be around areas where children gather.
Right now the city ordinance states a sex offender must not loiter within 66 ft. of playgrounds, parks, pools or day care centers. The new petition is asking the city to modify the distance to 1,500 ft.
Tarin Rud is a Chippewa Falls resident who created the petition. She started it because of safety concerns within the community.
“It’s not about a person in specific, this is about a city ordinance that just doesn’t feel right. 66 ft.is not very far,” she explained.

I think the person that started this petition really needs a new hobby.
