Sheriff gas budget is limiting engagement

Post by bignflnut »

The Isabella County Sheriff’s Office said it is feeling the pain at the pump.

“We have exhausted what funds were budgeted for fuel with several months to go before the budget reset,” the sheriff’s office said.


This comes as gas prices in many parts of Michigan have been over $5 per gallon.


The budget problems have already caused the department to change how the department handles certain situations, Sheriff Michael Main said.

“I have instructed the deputies to attempt to manage whatever calls are acceptable over the phone,” Main said. “This would be non-in-progress calls, non-life-threatening calls, calls that do not require evidence collection or documentation.”
Won't stop riots, or enter schools being shot up...now add pay for gas to outlier areas.

Get ready this summer, y'all...yous on yer own.

Well that's one silver lining to the gas prices.
