County funds radar guns for FHP to speed up patrols
Okaloosa County Commissioners approved 24000 to buy 15 radar speed guns for the Florida Highway Patrol. Sgt. Dean Sullivan noted the 14 troopers currently share two devices since 1981 rules limited equipment use. He said tourists and speeders will rise in Destin and Santa Rosa Beach, with fines reimbursing the cost, expected to pay off in about three months. Troopers will receive the units by June 1.
