Precinct 4 constable asks for five replacement vehicles and two deputy positions
Summary
The Constable for Precinct 4 asked for five vehicle replacements, a Polaris UTV, regrading of bailiffs to make hiring competitive, and two full-time deputies (split between veterans and domestic-violence specialty courts). He presented CAD event counts (roughly 20,023 events over a 9‑month window) to justify resources.
The Constable (Precinct 4) presented operational data and personnel requests, telling commissioners the office recorded roughly 20,023 CAD events in the period reviewed and urged vehicle replacements to retire high-mileage units. “We're asking for 5 vehicles this year on the replacement,” he said, and noted a request for a closed‑cab Polaris-style UTV for off-road, parade and event duty.
He also requested two full‑time deputies — one to support specialty courts (veterans/domestic-violence) and one road-and-bridge deputy — and asked that bailiffs be regraded from grade 33 to 36 to aid recruitment. The constable described training and equipment dynamics (Taser subscription changes and simunition purchases) and said some replacement costs are offset by grants for specialty positions; the court heard the presentation and will consider the requests in budget deliberations.
