Request approval for an immediate increase funding for the Sheriff’s Office in the amount of $6,265,157.89, concentrating on the deficits forecast in FY2022 budget. The raise in funding addresses significant challenges due to inflation related to fuel, inmate food, personnel cost, inmate medical care and inmate transportation. This also addresses substantial issues associated with a compensatory and overtime problem causing significant attrition in jail and courthouse operations, leading to a noticeable misalignment with similar law enforcement agencies in recruiting efforts and security. (APPROVED AS AMENDED)
