Sheriff Bill Ayub came and spoke today to discuss the size, scope, and work of the Ventura County Sherriff Department. The department covers as far south to Thousand Oaks and as far north as many of the unincorporated areas of the Topa Topa mountains. He touched on local partnerships with the local fire department, including their procurement of two Black Hawk Helicopters ushered into fire service. Finally, he discussed the growing drug and Fentanyl problems affecting youth and their partnerships with local community organizations like the Boys & Girls Club and Casa Pacifica, who help with drug prevention and mentoring at-risk young people.
