Sheriff says six deputies funded; roles assigned to warrants, juvenile court, patrol and administration

Sheriff Moulton told the Board he was grateful for funds to hire six new deputies and described how the positions will be allocated. "Two deputies would be assigned to the Warrants Division, one to Juvenile Court security, two to the Patrol Division focusing on traffic detail, and one to an administrative role responsible for human resources, hiring and promotion, and internal affairs duties," he said.

The sheriff characterized the hires as targeted support for core public-safety functions: warrant enforcement, juvenile court security and traffic enforcement on patrol, plus a position to handle internal administrative responsibilities. The transcript records the funding acknowledgment and assignment plan during the public hearing; the county did not record a separate vote tied to these hires at this meeting.
