Athens County Approves 300 for Sheriff Cruiser Repairs
Athens County Commissioners agreed to provide 300 for repairs to sheriff cruisers after Sheriff Paul Brown requested funds. Brown said the repair fund was depleted for two months and tires, brakes and upkeep were needed. The panel advised consulting before large expenditures and voted to remove one vehicle from the sheriff juvenile bureau due to a canceled grant. A $12,300 request by the Child Development Center was tabled for lack of funds.
