On January 18, 2017, The City of Forest Lake began the process to receive a formal proposal from the Washington County Sheriff’s Department for contract law enforcement services. The purpose of this request is to explore the feasibility of Washington County providing law enforcement services to the City of Forest Lake and to evaluate the budgetary impact it may have. A webpage has been established to warehouse all of the information related to this process. The webpage can be found here: www.cityofforestlake.com/contractlawenforcement
