 With an investment of $137,000, the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department is now home to three off-highway vehicles. These vehicles enhance the department's ability to patrol and protect hard-to-reach areas, allowing deputies to respond quickly and efficiently to emergencies, ensuring the safety of our community in remote locations.
We are thrilled to announce a series of initiatives approved by the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors.
Several initiatives aimed at bolstering infrastructure and public safety were approved, aimed at furthering the progress of our region.
