Marshall County: jail reopened; board approves hiring steps and expands deputy training
Summary
At the May 19 meeting Sheriff Jason Boman and Jail Administrator Mark Ellerbusch reported the county jail is open; the board authorized advertising to hire a deputy at C-51 with pay differentials and noted field training officer (FTO) training obtained by two deputies who will expand training to others.
Sheriff Jason Boman and Jail Administrator Mark Ellerbusch told the Marshall County Board of Commissioners on May 19 that the county jail is now open and operating. The board authorized recruitment for a deputy position and noted recent training steps for deputy field trainers.
The board authorized advertising to hire a deputy at C-51 with hazard pay, on-call pay and shift-differential pay (motion passed M/S/C Kiesow/Bring, 5-0). The meeting record shows discussion of retirement replacements and hiring timelines for sworn staff, but no final appointments were made at the session.
Deputies Hayden Sczepanski and Willie Wagner have completed field training officer (FTO) training, and the record states they will expand FTO work to all deputies to strengthen on-the-job training. The board also received a jail project total costs report later in the agenda, though specific total figures for the project were not detailed in the meeting summary provided to the board.
The board recorded the sale of a retiring officer’s revolver as authorized (see separate finance action), with the sheriff responsible for approving the transfer and establishing a fair price. The board discussed possible funding for a Jail Coordinator position as part of broader personnel and service discussions.
