\"Paulding<\/a><\/p>\n

It\u2019s been quite sometime since the \u201cnew\u201d Sheriff Office and Jail was opened. This year after the general election there is a breath of fresh air at the local law enforcement facility in Paulding. Sheriff Jason Landers stated, \u201cI felt it would prevail by a couple hundred votes.\u00a0 Never in my thoughts did I think it would pass by a 60%-40% split.\u201d<\/p>\n

The voters of Paulding County overwhelmingly decided it was time to house local inmates in a local jail. This will be bring jobs back to the county and bring down the travel expenses that were necessary previously.<\/p>\n

Landers has worked hard since he was first elected to bring a spirit of unity and outreach within the office and extend that out into the community. Landers praised the personnel, \u201cThat tells me that my staff is doing a great job serving this county.\u201d Jason continued, \u201cFrom answering the call for service in Communications, to the Road Patrol Deputies responding to the request for service, to the inmates being treated with care and respect no matter what the allegation by the Corrections staff.\u201c<\/p>\n

It will take some time to get the facility to meet current state and federal incarceration requirements. Much of of the time will be testing the existing equipment and replacing if necessary. Officer Training will also be a priority with updated regulations.<\/p>\n

Even with all the work ahead Landers is optimistic and ready to take on the challenge, \u201cI am truly humbled with the results.\u201d Jason realizes how much the people of Paulding County are behind him. He appreciates all the support it takes, making this jail a big community win.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
