Sheriff's Office Budget
During this difficult time, most government agencies have been called upon to face severe budget cuts. Under the leadership of Tony Spurlock, the Command Staff of the DCSO has sharpened their pencils and developed a proposed 2021 budget that proposes an overall reduction in the amount over $550,000.
News
"A pullback of police activity, especially traffic and pedestrian stops, results in fewer illegal guns being taken off the street and fewer violent offenders getting incarcerated. The result is more Denver residents being murdered, robbed, and assaulted. This is certainly not a good thing."

Why did Denver’s crime rate rise so dramatically in 2020? Our evidence points to a legitimacy crisis with the criminal justice system.@DouglasCountySearchAndRescue deployed their volunteers to help; these unsung heroes stopped everything to come to the aid of our community. They spend their own $ and hours and hours of training to be available to us. @DougCoPSAC is mindful of the future needs of our SAR for equipment, storage, and operational facilities. Thank you to all the search volunteers!
Our next meeting is Wednesday, March 10, 2021, 6:00 PM. We will be broadcasting the meeting here via Facebook Live! Our guest speaker will be Tim Johnson, the Director of Emergency Management.
