Summary

The amendment authorizes the Covington County sheriff to keep records of, store, and sell abandoned, stolen, or unclaimed personal property and firearms. Owners can claim items within six months; otherwise, sales go to a sheriff‑fund used for police work. It creates a transparent auction process and directs proceeds to local law‑enforcement resources.
