“It’s a Catch 22… It’s a Double-Edged Sword” — Lt. Dupuis on Balancing Property Taxes With Demands for Better Coverage - Part TWO
Manage episode 524196185 series 3590907
In Part Two, Democratic candidate for Hancock County Sheriff Lieutenant Dakota Dupuis explains how geography and limited staffing shape law-enforcement coverage across the county. He discusses his plan for all administrators to work night shifts to stay connected to deputies, improve communication, and better understand the challenges on the road.
Dupuis outlines the strain created when deputies are positioned on opposite ends of the county, the impact on response times and safety, and the budget pressures that limit staffing expansion. He also addresses recruitment challenges, the limited pool of certified officers, and why even a small increase in personnel would significantly improve service. He closes by highlighting what separates him as a candidate and how he plans to lead the agency forward.
