County approves 2025 Pomona contract allowing deputies to enforce city ordinances
Summary
The Franklin County Commission approved the county’s annual contract with the city of Pomona, which staff said permits county deputies to enforce Pomona ordinances and covers pay and benefits for one deputy; staff read an amount of $85,009.296 payable in four installments.
The Franklin County Commission approved the county’s annual law‑enforcement contract with the city of Pomona for 2025, a contract county staff said is required for county deputies to enforce Pomona’s municipal ordinances.
A county law‑enforcement representative explained that deputies can already enforce state statutes inside city limits but cannot enforce city ordinances without a formal contract. The staff presentation described the contract as covering salary and benefits for one deputy and said the amount, as read aloud during the meeting, was $85,009.296, payable in four installments (the transcript read the number as stated).
Commissioners asked clarifying questions about what the contract covers and how exhibit A lists certified staff eligible to work the Pomona assignment; staff said the exhibit will be updated as personnel change. After discussion the board moved and voted to approve the 2025 contract as presented.
The motion authorizes county staff to execute the contract under existing budget authority; commissioners did not amend contract terms during the meeting.
