body
Background and Purpose of Request:
Requestor: James Gailey, County Manager
The County, whose Sheriff Office is in much need of a greater presence in the Lakes Region, would receive upwards of 3,000 square feet of space within the fire station for a super-substation. This would provide a greater presence in the area the Sheriff’s Office primarily serves. This is an initial step in providing resources in the areas the Deputies serve. The MOA is for 40 years and provides the County an escape clause if so warranted. The Commissioners have been updated along the way on this project. Both the Town and the County are at a point where a binding document is an appropriate next step.
Funding Amount and Source:
