THE WOODLANDS, TX -- In a video released by Preserve The Woodlands, Montgomery County Sheriff Rand Henderson says he shares the concerns of law enforcement experts who have identified critical deficiencies in the Woodlands Township’s law enforcement incorporation plan.

“I have examined The Township's law enforcement incorporation plan and share the concerns of law enforcement experts who have identified critical deficiencies,” Sheriff Henderson said. “At a time when crime is rising across America, now is not the time to dismantle your law enforcement.

“My team works hard every day to protect this community, and we don’t want that to change.”

The law enforcement plan, which has been endorsed by The Woodlands Board of Directors as a blueprint for creating a new police department, drastically understates (by many millions of dollars) the costs of providing law enforcement services, neglects to plan for many vital police operations, and fails to address costly compliance and liability issues.

Once incorporation has passed, the only choice would be raising taxes dramatically or cutting community protection from current levels.
