SHERIFF’S OFFICE COMMUNITY MEETING

SHERIFF TO REVEAL KIM SEARCH FINDINGS

Sheriff Dotson and his team at our Sheriff’s Office are asking for the participation of all Lincoln County residents at a community meeting scheduled for April 19, 2007. The meeting will be held from 6:30 to 8 p.m.

• Thursday, April 19th at the Lincoln County Courthouse
• Board of Commissioners’ Meeting Room
• 225 W. Olive Street, Newport

Citizens are invited to offer their ideas and concerns about public safety in Lincoln County or comment on their Sheriff’s Office. Sheriff Dotson and his team will be presenting information about what has been accomplished since the last community meetings held in October 2006.

Search and Rescue operations in Oregon captured newspaper headlines last December and while the events resulted in the loss of life, lives were also saved. A synopsis of the investigation into the Kim search operation in southern Oregon will be presented and the audience provided with some insight into what is being done about search and rescue in our county.
