Security checks are available to citizens who will be away from their homes, businesses, or other facilities for extended periods of time. Deputies will periodically check the exterior of the premises. This service is offered to deter potential burglars while your premise is unoccupied. If your plans change and you return home ahead of schedule, please notify the Ottawa County Sheriff's Office at (616) 738-4000 so the home security checks can be stopped. Thank you for your cooperation with this request.
