Hall sheriffs budget may get cut
County leaders say move will not affect public safety

The Hall County Sheriff’s Office has been tightening its belt coming into the summer’s Hall County government budget process. The county’s largest department — and arguably one of its most important — has trimmed about $1.2 million for the proposed budget presented to the public on Tuesday night. Those cuts are still a small fraction of the sheriff’s office budget, which typically runs close to $30 million annually or more than a third of the county’s entire general budget.
