I assume you get a take home car after completing FTO. Do you only get one if you reside in Polk? I live in Hillsborough and was curious if I got hired if I could take it home a county over.
Thanks

Must live in Polk. No exceptions, at all. They’ll give you a short period of time to get moved here, but you’ve got to live within the confines (or get an apt to be your home here).
Car is issued upon release of classroom portion of FTO. So during field portion of FTO, you get to take your car home everyday.
You have to reside within Polk. Interestingly however other agencies outside Polk will allow you to reside in neighboring counties.Quote:

Yep. You’re given a timeframe to move within the county, but it’s a must.Quote:
