Florence Prepares for New SLED Pee Dee Office Opening

In a significant development for South Carolina’s law enforcement, the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED) will open a new station in Florence. Notably, this new facility will serve as the Pee Dee office, increasing the agency’s presence and enabling more efficient problem-solving for local public safety issues.

Groundbreaking Ceremony to Launch Construction

To kick-off the construction, SLED has arranged a groundbreaking ceremony for Thursday. This event not only marks the start of the new journey for the region’s law enforcement but also offers an opportunity for local residents and officials to partake in this momentous occasion.

The groundbreaking ceremony will take place at the new office’s site, conveniently positioned within the community. Attendees can find parking at the intersection of Anne Pearce Drive and South Evander Drive.

SLED’s Expansion in Florence

Florence residents have been eagerly anticipating SLED’s expansion, which promises to enhance local law enforcement’s effectiveness. The Pee Dee office’s establishment follows a community-oriented philosophy, ensuring the local community’s needs and concerns are prioritized. It will serve as a hub for law enforcement activities aimed at maintaining the safety and welfare of Florence’s residents.

Anticipated Benefits for the Community

An expanded SLED office in Florence provides several potential benefits. Firstly, it offers improved, immediate efficiency in addressing local crime. The central station will serve as command central for the entire Pee Dee region, orchestrating investigations, and coordinating responses. This closer proximity will also enable law enforcement to respond to emergencies more quickly.

Secondly, it fosters enhanced community relationships, with SLED agents becoming a familiar presence in the community. This constant interaction will not only foster better relations but also encourage community members to assist law enforcement efforts and contribute to a safer neighborhood.

Lastly, it provides employment opportunities. As the new office increases in its operations, it will require additional personnel to staff various roles, creating jobs within the community.

A Joining of Hands for Community Safety

With SLED’s uniquely community-oriented approach, their new Florence office promises to bolster the safety, trust, and confidence of the residents. While the groundbreaking ceremony marks the beginning of the new office’s development, it also symbolizes the start of a renewed commitment to community-centered law enforcement.
