This is the part where everyone's taxes go up for a redundancy of services.

Did you just wake up and start reacting to things. This has been clearly laid out in almost every press conference by the StG organizers. Chief of police is required by law as a liaison for the sheriff and the city. The sheriff will continue to patrol the area of St. George as they do all other cities in the parish if necessary. BR has a police department so they rarely are needed there.

St. G could use surplus funding to expand or supplement the Sheriff's role - could.
