Sheriff Blake Wilson told Polk County justices on Sept. 30 that he planned to move existing budgeted funds from one line item to another to buy three new radar units for patrol cars aimed at encouraging slower driving on county roads; the court approved the transfer.

Wilson emphasized the transfer did not add new money; it reallocates dollars already in the sheriff’s budget. He did not provide a vendor name or dollar amounts during the meeting. The court moved, seconded and approved the transfer by voice vote.

Action: internal transfer approved; purchases to proceed from reallocated sheriff’s budget lines.
