The proposal is under consideration by the The Woodlands Township, the initiative envisions the setting up of patrol zones for the villages and The Town Center in The Woodlands.
Currently the plan is under the Sherriff's scrutiny, awaiting for approval. The proposal is to create a single Woodlands Township Division within the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office, which would include a patrol zone in each village as well as one in The Town Center. Each Village would be in custody of four deputies interfacing with the association and 10 for the Town Center.
An additional 15 staff members are needed to accomplish the plan, including 10 patrol deputies, two traffic officers, two detention officers and a lieutenant.
The hiring of new personnel amounts to an estimated $ 1 million, which would be obtained by shifting funds from the Oak Ridge North and Shenandoah police departments.
