ordered by the sentencing Court, which means if public notification was
ordered by the sentencing Court, upon a change of residential address, the
County Sheriff will provide notice to a neighborhood within 1000 feet of a
Tier III Sex Offender's residential address. The County Sheriff will also
provide notice to schools, pre-schools, licensed day care providers, and
