RANDOLPH, Utah.  December 4, 2019 .  Dale Stacey, Sheriff, informed Commissioners that Garden City Search and Rescue and Fire Department had purchased a drone. He said that they found three missing people quickly who might not have been found.  He feels that the Sheriff’s  office should have one.  He wants to spend $2,743 to buy another. 

“We looked for a child with mental disabilities on a cold and rainy day and in 15 minutes we were able to find this child.”  Stacey said.  He will have two or three of the officers trained to use it. 

They also need seven winter packs for Search and Rescue on snowmobiles  and five more GPS units.   New tires on their trucks are needed, they will do as in the past, buying a set at Dee’s and another at Stacey’s.
