Sheriff reports deputy resignation; undersheriff to shift to dispatch amid maternity leave

Elk County Board of Commissioners · September 29, 2025

Summary

Sheriff John Walker told the commissioners a deputy resigned on Sunday and that Undersheriff Kelly will move to dispatch until she begins maternity leave, prompting a near-term staffing shuffle in the sheriff's office.

Sheriff John Walker reported to the board that "a deputy resigned on Sunday." He added that Undersheriff Kelly "will be moving to dispatch until she starts maternity leave," indicating an interim reassignment to cover operations.

The minutes do not record the deputy's name, reason for resignation, or a timeline for hiring a replacement.
