Douglas County sheriff's office gets relief from heat

Things are heating up at the sheriff’s office in Douglas County – literally. Recent summertime temperatures this spring have revealed a broken air-conditioning unit in the jail administration area. Sheriff Troy Wolbersen brought the item before the county commissioners on March 27.

Johnson Controls and Ellingson Plumbing and Heating submitted cost estimates for each option.
