This must be shared with Polk County. He also reported that the Finance Dept. wants to put the cellular phone charges of $30,000 on the Sheriff's Department budget. The Committee supports the idea of the Sheriff's Dept. handling the cellular phone bills and every department should control their own. However, the Committee recommends that the phone bills remain in the Finance Dept. budget this year, and wait until next year for the change so all phone charges can be worked into the budget at the proper time. The Sheriff's Dept. has 16 more phones this year. JAIL UPGRADES: Karen Humphrey reported on the improvements that need to be made.
