City officials in Rochelle are looking at ways to cut expenses in each department under the current budget.
The discussion has started again about the possibility of the Ogle County Sheriff's Department being the telecommunication center for the Rochelle Police Department which would involve the city's dispatchers.
Rochelle Mayor Chet Olson talked about the issue yesterday on the program "Let The People Know".
He said they are looking at savings if the city and county are duplicating services for local and area residents. Olson said they are evaluating all of the departments in looking at costs savings in the future.
The mayor stressed that no final decisions have been made at this time.
"Let The People Know is heard on Wednesday afternoon at 12:30 on Good Time Oldies 1060 and rebroadcast Saturday morning at 6 on WRHL and Sunday morning at 6 on "The Coyote".
