Pompano Beach commissioners move to stick with BSO: ‘A no-brainer’
Pompano Beach commissioners voted to renew their three-year policing contract with the Broward Sheriff’s Office (BSO) at an annual cost of $70 million, citing cost and logistical challenges of creating a municipal police force. The decision contrasts with Deerfield Beach, which is ending its BSO contract to reconstitute its own departments. Commissioners emphasized the move as a pragmatic choice for now, with plans to revisit the issue in the future.
