Deputies will utilize the precinct for shift change and the office area for writing reports similar to the way the deputies use the Clermont Precinct.

 

The Sheriff's Office feels the new precinct along with the reduced size of the patrol districts will enable the Sheriff's Office to better serve the citizens of Lula and East Hall.
