LOUISVILLE, Ky. — A grant from the Kentucky Office of Homeland Security will provide more than $12,000 to the Bullitt County Sheriff’s East Office 911 Center.

The funds will go toward consulting, setup, training and technical support to the sheriff’s office.

“Emergency services are critical to the continued safety of our communities,” Senator Michael J. Nemes, R-Bullitt County, said. “This is a critical enhancement that Sheriff Scholar and the Bullitt County Sheriff's Department truly needs, one that will improve efficiencies and enhance their responsiveness.”

Nemes said those enhancements could make a difference during life-saving calls, especially when time is of the essence.
