6/24/25 Council Meeting [94:15-98:06]

Any questions? On public motion, please say aye. Aye. Motion passed. The increments are removed more of the effective downward limit, 2026. Okay. Cross-cuter Sam Hart. Not here. Shriff, break down. Do it if you have it. Break. As always, put me towards the end when you're tired. No. I just regret the geo-population. Today, we had 74 inmates, 62 males, 12 females, holding 11 for DOC, holding 2 for parole, and then we have two level 6 valence that were sentenced locally. And then just a quick update. Today we had our annual general inspection from the Department of Corrections, an inspector that comes down every year. He was here for two and a half, three hours. Unless he documents something that he didn't tell us about, there were no violations. Nothing that he found that we needed to do, improve on at the jail. And really the last thing he said was, let's keep up the great work. It's really, the changes have been phenomenal over there. So that was good news as far as that goes. So I bring this to the hiring request tonight. And I'll be able to take one of these. I think sometimes there's been a little bit of misunderstanding in the RDI. Don't convey my points. So I wanted to talk a little bit tonight on the hiring request. What I'll be asking for. As you see the first handout. Two merit debt-based thoughts. We have one that went to Booth in PD, who I don't know if you saw any recent advertisements, but they're starting out about $87,000. So we have one go up there. And then we have one retire after 33 years of service to the department. And then we're asking for three jail officers. I actually have five openings in the jail. They back some time. We approved one last time. We're in the hiring process for that. And then I'm leaving one unfilled and not ever asking. In fact, I'll go into that a little bit more here in just a second. And then so tonight I'm asking to fill three spots. One is a jail officer who he has one more week left to work. He's taking another job that's paying about $27 an hour. So next week's his last week to work. So I'd like to go ahead and get approval. So I can start working on that hiring process. One would replace a female officer. She wasn't originally from around here. And she's split up with her significant other and went back to where she's from. That's about the third time that's happened in the last year to us. So anyway, so we have her spot. And then we have one that a long time employee 20 plus years of the sheriff's department having really serious health issues. She's retiring after doing years of court security and the jail and different things. So those were the three openings come from. Now, so we go through this hiring request sheet that I gave you that first one. I want to just highlight a few things. So kind of there's no confusion.
