The Starke County Sheriff’s Office will be in charge of security at the courthouse once renovations are finished. Sheriff Bill Dulin told the county council last week he will need more part-time officers to handle the responsibility.
After discussing the best approach, the council agreed to create and fund a new “security officer” position within the sheriff’s office. They also agreed to appropriate $50,000 from the county economic development income tax earmarked for the jail to pay the officers.
Larry Keiser will still serve as chief of court security and will be in charge of scheduling the staff.
