Coeur d’Alene, Idaho: Due to extreme and unplanned staffing shortages, as well as unfunded state and district court mandates effecting the Sheriff’s Office Civil and Records sections, the Sheriff’s Office Lobby will be temporarily closed to the public on Fridays beginning tomorrow September 21, 2018. The temporary operating hours will be Monday to Thursday from 9 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Once regular staffing levels resume, we will again return to our regular Monday through Friday public lobby hours.
The Kootenai County Sheriff’s Office will continue to process and respond to all essential and life safety requests during this temporary lobby closure. Anyone needing emergency assistance is encouraged call 911. For non-emergency assistance, please call 208-446-1300.
Sheriff Ben Wolfinger
