how much did this cost us? phone changes,locks,signs,address change,radio move and re-hookups,etc...i hope they take their junky single-wide trailer and put it up for display there too like it was in historic abingdon."what an eye sore"

[upeeps]

oh just shut up, They needed a new building. It will also improve response time (hopefuly).. and is better suited for them then the current building.

[supine]

disagree....have you seen the traffic lights and traffic on rt.19?it can't improve response!the office they had was more centrally locates!look it up on a map!!and how much is rent since that building isn't a county building

[supine]

yeah - response time to give you a speeding ticket. i guess you have no problem with the waste of $$$ and space that office generates.

Supine...always looking for a reason to complain about the Sheriff's office.
Maybe if you could spell the word "sheriff" you might have gotten a job with a position of authority and you wouldn't be so jealous.
The county does own that building and it looks like as a tax payer you would appreciate seeing your tax dollars at work.
Regardless if the Sheriff's office uses the money or not, YOU WILL STAY PAY TAXES! So why not see the money put to good use.
Also, unless your money was seized in an investigation, you didn't pay for any of those transfer costs anyway.

Hey Dork, before you throw stones have someone proof read your post. So you are saying that money taken in busts paid for this? Well - I'd say that money does pay for some things in this county...but in other ways.

And another thing you people keep talking about moving the radios. Central dispatch didn't move. Just the sheriff's office moved. The radios are still right where they were. Also I'm glad to see that building put to good use since AEP left it. And it makes those that live on Rustic Ln feel a little more secure.

Could somebody please enlighten me as to where all this moving and shaking is taking place. I have no idea where fred has moved to now, no matter where it is he is still worthless.

[RNEMTI]

The sheriff's office moved into the old AEP building on Rustic Ln (the road that runs behind Food Country off Route 19).

eventually dispatch is moving out there as well. there all going to be one happy family under one roof...

By the way the officers aren't sitting at the office waiting for a call to come in. They're out on the roads patroling unless they're doing paperwork.

Glad to see the dept.get a new location, gives them room to grow.Its a lot better than that old building they were in.Doesnt compare to the towns three story building the PD is in, now thats a wast of you tax dollars.
