The Covid-19, the Levy County Sheriff’s Office and You
The safety and well-being of our residents and visitors is a top priority for the Levy County Sheriff’s Office. The LCSO and the Florida Sheriff’s Association is working to ensure that the most up-to-date Center for Disease Control guidance is quickly and accurately disseminated to all of our members and citizens. To stay current with the most relevant information we encourage all citizens to utilize the CDC guidelines. Please go to the Detention Bureau Jail Visitation link for information regarding COVID guidelines for the Detention Facility.
The Levy County Sheriff’s Office is making the following steps in response to the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic:
- Our enforcement actions and protocols have not changed significantly at this time. But because of the State of Emergency related to Coronavirus, the Levy County Sheriff’s Office has temporarily suspended all eviction activities until further notice.
- Deputies, of course, are responding to calls for service. We are working to make sure that if we are called to assist, we have the adequate resources to keep all deputies safe and protected from exposure. Our Deputies are trained for what to do in the event they are exposed to a number of contagions, and they follow very specific protocols in those instances.
- Most of our School Resource Deputies will fill other roles throughout the agency while schools are closed.
- LCSO is continuing to pay our School Crossing Guards for their regular work hours during the times schools would otherwise be in session.
