Summary
The board authorized county sponsorship for three newly hired sheriff's recruits to attend the Oakland Community College Police Academy from Aug. 6 to Dec. 12, 2025, at up to $20,000 per recruit (total not to exceed $60,000), with expected grant reimbursement if available.
The Sanilac County Board of Commissioners voted to sponsor three newly hired sheriff's office recruits to attend the Oakland Community College Police Academy from Aug. 6 through Dec. 12, 2025. The authorization covers tuition and associated costs at $20,000 per recruit for a total not to exceed $60,000, with the expectation of reimbursement from the MCOLES Public Safety Academy assistance grant program or other grants if funding is available.
Commissioners asked whether recruits were coming from corrections and discussed travel and lodging logistics; staff said the recruits would drive daily rather than use hotel rooms. The motion was offered and supported and carried by the board.
