Does Indian Trail need to extend our contract for law
enforcement services with the Union County Sheriff's
Office (UCSO)?

  • Indian Trail residents said YES. The results of a
    2008 Town wide survey revealed that Indian Trail residents
    are satisfied with the service provided by the Sheriff’s Office
    with over 90% of respondents calling for an increase in the
    number of Sheriff Deputies.
  • An independent study said YES. In 2008, a valid and
    unbiased UNC Charlotte study investigated the advantages
    and disadvantages of establishing an independent police
    department. They reported that an independent police
    department for the Town of Indian Trail would be cost
    prohibitive (raise taxes by more than 100%) and would not
    guarantee better service.
  • The Public Safety Committee said YES. In 2009, this
    committee, established by the Town Council recommended
    the continuation of its current contract with
    UCSO.

We the undersigned residents and registered voters of Indian
Trail, NC, urge the Town Council to continue the contract
with the Union County Sheriff’s Office for the current 5-year
contract that expires in 2013 and to extend and expand it as
needed.
