The SSO does not have the manpower, money or resource to be able to "take over" NPPD. We can barely handle our own calls-for-service with a skeleton crew. To "take over" NPPD, we would have to abandon the rest of the county. That is not financially or logistically possible. It will never happen. The City of North Port is blessed to be incorporated and to have their own municipal police department. Enjoy it.
