It has been three months since we hit the ground running here at the Marion County Sheriff’s Office. As is usually the case when stepping into a new position there is much to be learned and as we discover the “ins and outs” here, there is much more we find we WANT to accomplish. As I promised you transparency during my campaign, I wanted to take a moment to give you an update on what we have been up to in our first three months here: At the County level, there are some things not yet established for us. One being our 2023 budget. Even without an approved budget, you can be assured that we are going through ALL current spending from top to bottom and looking for cost-lowering options in every area of what we do here.
