TUSCUMBIA-The Colbert County Sheriff’s Office received grant funds this week from local legislators associated with the “Colbert County Community Development Committee”. This committee disperses funds from the TVA PILOT program for the purposes of promoting economic development.
Checks were presented to the Sheriff’s Office by Senator Larry Stutts, Rep. Jamie Kiel, and Rep. Andrew Sorrell. The Colbert County Community Development Committee is comprised of three local appointed citizens, David Isom, Stacy Norwood, and Waylon Huguley. The Colbert County Judge of Probate, Daniel Rosser serves as Chairman of this board.
Rep. Andrew Sorrell was on hand to present one of the checks to Sheriff Frank Williamson. The funds total $9,000 and will be used to purchase ballistic bullet proof vests for our department.
“We so greatly appreciate the generosity of the donations and we thank the committee for making the grant money possible,” said Colbert County Sheriff Frank Williamson.
