Sheriff seeks extra deputy as staff attend academy; commissioners renew Bethel substation lease
Summary
Oxford County reviewed a chaplain job description, authorized renewal of a Norway Savings Bank lease for the Bethel Substation, and heard the Sheriff request an additional deputy to cover a seven‑month military leave and upcoming academy training.
The Sheriff's Office presented a rough draft of a chaplain job description that the minutes say will be formalized on April 21. Commissioners also authorized renewing a lease with Norway Savings Bank for the Bethel Substation's rented space.
The Sheriff requested hiring an additional deputy to cover an employee's seven‑month military leave and to avoid overtime while two deputies attend the academy, arguing a new hire would be less costly than extended overtime. The minutes record the staffing request but do not show a formal vote on hiring.
