The commissioners reported that several cameras were being added around the jail and courthouse. Renee Clampitt, planner/911/GIS supervisor, explained that the cameras being installed will help with some blind spots.

The same security company, Stanley Security, will be installing three outdoor cameras and eight cameras indoors. Two cameras will be installed in the jail doorways, one in the kitchen and one in the booking area. Two extra cameras will be installed in the courthouse hallways. The outdoor cameras will cover a few blind corners around the courthouse.
