Lamoille County Sheriff’s Department
2011 Annual Report

In 2011 the Lamoille County Sheriff’s Department Communications Center answered 8941  9-1-1 calls up from 7783 in 2010.

On June 1, 2010 the Communications Center began dispatching for Barre Town Police, Fire and Ambulance. By adding Barre Town to our dispatch region, the department was able to hire two additional dispatchers. Now there are always two dispatchers on per shift, with a third dispatcher available during the busiest call volume times. Barre Town’s contract has also helped to alleviate the cost to the Lamoille County partnership towns.

The new radio and console equipment for the new dispatch center was delayed in arrival and installation, but as of this report, the new center is up and running! This project was achieved with the use of drug forfeiture money and Homeland Security Grants.  The cost of the project was $869,304. Because of the federal narrow band mandate the taxpayers saved that amount in taxes.  The plan to build a new radio tower on Davis Hill in 2012 is still proceeding. Once built, in concert with our new dispatch center and radio upgrades, our service to the communities will be greatly enhanced.

During 2011 the LCSD Patrol Division responded to 3680 calls for service. The Deputies are still providing traffic patrol to the Town of Elmore twenty hours per month. Our School Resource Officer at Lamoille Union High School continues to be very involved at the High School the Tech Center and the local elementary schools. The Lamoille Special Investigations Unit investigated 84 cases throughout the county.

Burglaries and drug-related crimes continue to be the focus of our investigations.

Respectfully,
Roger M. Marcoux Jr.
Lamoille County Sheriff
