Spirit Lake, IA (KICD)– The Dickinson County Attorney’s Office will be undergoing some restructuring after getting approval from the Board of Supervisors Tuesday morning.
County Attorney Amy Zenor told the board the changes would involve eliminating a fairly new position to allow funding to go towards more help in working criminal cases.
Zenor says the current layout with two attorneys is not nearly enough to handle the current workload coming into the courthouse.
The idea behind the investigator position was to help law enforcement and finish looking into any cases that had not been completed, but Zenor says right now there is a greater need for prosecutors with Dickinson County having as many as one thousand criminal cases pending.
