The article advised this would save the Sheriff’s Office $1 million dollars by the end of 2010. The second article stated there would be a $13 million dollar deficit in the county which would equal to a $2.2 million dollar cut for the Sheriff’s Office. The Sheriff is still trying to work with the sergeants and civilians to freeze their contracts for one year. Brother Bergman stated the County Commission has made statements to the Sheriff they would rather see the Sheriff’s Office run the jail and civil and not have any road deputies.
