It looks like the county may go through with its threat to go it alone, I honestly think this would not be a good idea. Savannah-Chatham needs more cooperation, not less. Between this, CAT expansion and the Hutchinson Island de-annexation proposal, it seems like the county's leaders are hell bent on not working with the city.

The initial staffing recommended would be that of the county police department prior to the merger that created the Savannah-Chatham police department, at about 130 positions. Additional staffing would be considered during the first year.

Re-establishing the Chatham County police force was one of five alternatives presented to board members during a workshop at the International Trade and Convention Center on Hutchinson Island.

don't worry he's a local politician I'm sure he'll get off on that charge. a separate county police dept is a sad waste of money and is so redundant but it's probably better than the alternative, letting the corrupt and incompetent city leadership run it.
