The Starke County Sheriff’s Department will be getting two new vehicles following the approval of the Starke County Council and Commissioners.
Sheriff Bill Dulin requested two 2020 Ford Explorers at a cost of about $32,000 apiece. The pair will replace two older Ford police cruisers in the fleet. One will be returned to the county garage and then painted and then exchange another one.
Quotes for equipment will be reviewed in a future meeting.
The purchase will be coming from the Jail CEDIT Fund which was approved by the council members last week.
