Summary
The bill would amend state law so a sheriff’s office can be placed at any location within a county’s boundaries instead of being required to sit in the county seat. This would give sheriffs flexibility to choose sites that may better serve the public or reduce costs. The measure failed, dying in the Intergovernmental Affairs Subcommittee.
