Sheriff: Not Enough Money in Budget
THURSTON COMMISSIONERS EXTEND 2015 BUDGET COMMENT PERIOD
It's time for all citizens in Thurston County to ROAR like Lions!! The Thurston County Sheriff's Department will loose 6 sheriffs in 2015, according to the guidelines in the 2015 proposed budget. In this economy, this is bad news. (Nisqually Valley News article HERE.)
Our Sheriffs support us 24/7. We need to support them, now.
According to Thurston County Commission Chair Karen Valenzuela, the on-line version of the preliminary budget had some problems. "Apparently, some figures in the on-line budget document displayed improperly, making it hard to understand those parts of the budget. County staff are revising the tables and we want to make sure people have time to review the corrected budget and comment if they would like."
So they've extended the public comment period from October 10th to October 24th. Go to article HERE.
