WHEREAS, on October 5, 2010, the County Board adopted Resolution No. 30(2010)
implementing a review process to be applied to all current and future vacant positions (a soft
hiring freeze); and
WHEREAS, the current review policy requires all current and future vacant positions that
do not endanger the operation of essential county functions to be reviewed by the parent
committee and the Administration Committee and reviewed and approved by the County Board
before the position is refilled; and
WHEREAS, the Sheriff's Office has requested that the review process be amended for
two position classifications: (1) the union jail corrections officer position; and (2) the union
patrol officer position; and
WHEREAS, the requested amendment to the review process is to eliminate the need for
County Board review and approval if the Public Protection Committee and the Administration
Committee agree that the vacant position be refilled; and
WHEREAS, the basis for the Sheriff's Office request for amendment is: (1) the collective
bargaining agreement between the County and the law enforcement union requires a minimum
level of staffing for the jail corrections officer position; (2) overtime pay considerations; and (3)
considerations regarding Wisconsin Statutes sec. 79.07 relating to maintenance of effort for
emergency services; and
WHEREAS, the Public Protection Committee reviewed and approved this request; and
WHEREAS, the Administration Committee reviewed and approved this request; and
