Sentiment runs strong against commissioners' request for money
By CARL E. FEATHER - Staff Writer - cfeather@starbeacon.com Star Beacon
But Long suggested, after Moroski left, that commissioners take a hard look at the county’s spending for employee benefits. Long said passing on a portion of that expense to the employees could raise the money commissioners need to restore funding for the Sheriff’s Department.
Carlo said Friday she was “disappointed” that trustees would not be supporting the initiative but said commissioners would continue to make public safety their priority and work to find funding for the department.
An effort to pass a resolution from the association, stating it would not provide money to the commissioners, failed to gain support after trustees pointed out the request was made to individual townships, not the association. Not one trustee indicated that the township he or she represented would be sending money to the commissioners.
Sheriff William Johnson was unavailable for comment Friday.
