SSO gets new training office

[News Flash]

Commissioners decided unanimously to lease 6647 Midnight Pass Road to the Sarasota County Sheriff’s Office for use as a training facility. The property is near Point of Rocks.

Patterson cautioned the sheriff not to consider making it into the Siesta Key substation. “There’s been talk of moving the substation out of the village,” she said. “This agenda item is for a small training facility. I don’t want to see the substation switched.”

Sheriff’s Major Tim Carney promised not to move the substation from Siesta Key Village. “This is for eight training officers in the old Siesta Key Utilities building,” he said. “We are not going to move the substation.”

Dude~~ Surfs up

Get BB and his board , some Capn Morgan and we be surfin

This is a stroke of genius Timmy

Of all the gin joints in all the world~` You had to pick this one

Lease an office in a flood zone, off of one of the busiest intersections and highways in Sarasota(41 n Stickney)~~ Wassa matter ?? Couldn't get space on Casey or Manasota Keys?

There are lotsa empty retail and office spaces available, and most are a lot more convenient than Siesta Key..

P.S. to Siesta Key Village residents. You don not own your own private police department~ A real Sheriff should determine where the crime is actually occuring, and send in appropriate resources to handle the situation. Vending machine burglaries , illegal parking and loud music do not qualify as major crime issues.

Timmy ~~ You da man~~ way to flip and flop all over that Siesta Key money. Please don't ever go to the Emergency Room for an X-ray/ Then you would have proof positive that you are indeed spineless.//////

If Siesta wants control over L.E. then lease what you need and can afford from the SSO

It's a county owned building and they're leasing it to us for about a dollar a year. If you find anything less expensive, then please be sure to let us know.

If you love retirement so much quit posting what you dont know about. Its just an office for the training people and is costing 1 dollar a year because it was already a county building.

Please mind your business and worry about yourself. The SSO is not your concern anymore.

Sounds like she is our boss. She is calling the shots.
