Back on the September 10th County Board Of Supervisors meeting, Del Norte County Sheriff Garrett Scott was told to bring a budgeting plan back to the board in 14 days that would detail the Sheriff’s Office staffing changes. During the County Board of Supervisors meeting Tuesday, Sheriff Scott showed this plan to the Board.
Sheriff Scott gave a PowerPoint presentation that listed off some of the issues the Sheriff’s Office is having when it comes to hiring and retaining, highlighting the hiring process when it comes to getting Deputies, taking months to get someone to the academy and out onto the streets. Sheriff Scott also noted that most people drop out along this process, with only two participants who graduated last time.
