Just a reminder, we've got a drug box available for you to drop off any unused/unwanted/unneeded prescription and over the counter medications (no sharps). This box is available just inside our front door 24x7. If you have a large quantity to dispose of, please see the office staff during the office hours for assistance.
This new building will include the County Jail, the Sheriff’s Office, and the 911 Dispatch Center.
The construction site is located along E. Brumfield Ave. directly behind the existing jail. You can keep up on our progress by watching our live-stream construction camera.
Corrections Officer Fernando Bello
At 6 a.m. on May 28th, 2023, Officer Bello was working the jail board in our dispatch center when a 911 call came in from a Hispanic female. At the time neither of the Communications Officers could understand or speak Spanish. Officer Bello, who is a native of Brazil, speaks not only English but Portuguese and some Spanish. With this knowledge, he was able to translate on the fly for the dispatcher to get medical help to the caller.
“I am extremely proud of Officer Bello for stepping out of his comfort zone and getting help to one of our citizens. ” – Sheriff Vanoven
