Who is going to report to who? You have 3 separate towns. Are all towns going to have the same local laws and codes? Is the police chief going to answer to 3 separate town councils and mayors. How much is each town going to pay from the tax base to support the police? Will each pay there fair share? Will a smaller town be guaranteed patrol? Horry County, SC has a County police force on top of the Sherrifs office. Maybe Brunswick county should look into a county police force. That would leave the sherrif dept to handle specifs such as serving warrants, and hunting down criminals, while a county Police force could patrol the county and help town police.
