Reserves
The Steuben County Sheriff's Office Reserves are vital to the operations the Sheriff's Office conducts on a day to day basis. Our Reserves volunteer their time to assist with patrol duties, court process service, lake patrol, court security, and prisoner transports.
The Steuben County Sheriff's Office Reserves are split in to two main groups, Patrol and Marine Patrol. We currently have 8 officers assigned to patrol duties and 8 officers assigned to the marine patrol.
The units assigned to patrol duties supplement the Deputies by providing shift coverage, assisting at special details when more manpower is needed, and serving court process papers. All of the work they do is on a volunteer basis, serving their community.
The Marine Patrol provides a police presence on our many lakes. The Sheriff's Office has received a grant through the Lake And River Enhancement (LARE) grant for several years which allows us to pay our Marine Patrol officers to provide patrol on our lakes. The Marine Patrol officers also provide patrol on a volunteer basis. Each year, our Marine Patrol teaches boater safety courses throughout the county that are sponsored by area businesses who provide lunch for the attendees.
