AGENDA ITEMS
1. SHERIFF’S OFFICE – CREATION OF POSITIONS FOR BUILDING SECURITY – PHASE I
The Sheriff’s Office is seeking approval of the creation of several positions to be utilized for
enhanced security . The resolution is the first of a multi -phase approach. The County Executive’s
Office is working with the Sheriff’s Office to increase security, both on campus and in buildings,
including the South Health Cente r in Troy. The Sheriff’s Office currently has 250 part-time deputies.
The recommendation of adding security officers r esults from a review done on security coverage.
The proposed plan is to create the following: 1 GF/GP full-time eligible (FTE) Corrections Deputy I
position at the 52-1 District Court in Novi, 2 GF/GP part-time non-eligible (PTNE) 1,000 hours per
year Court Deputy II positions for increased security at the east and northeast courthouse doors, 3
GF/GP PTNE 1,000 hours per year Court Deputy II positions to be utilized for training at the
Emergency Response and Preparedness Division/Training Unit and 1 GF/GP PTNE 1,000 hours
per year Court Deputy II position to provide additional security in the WWAM program. Also 1
Special Revenue 1,000 hours per year Court Deputy I position will be deleted as a result of lost
funding from the Byrne Justice Assistance Grant (JAG ) program . Part-time officers receive the
same training that the full-time officers receive.

The Sheriff’s Office is requesting approval of contract rates for dispatch services for the period of
April 1, 2015 to March 31, 2018. The Sheriff’s Office began fire dispatch contracting in 1992. The

contract two weeks ago. Corporation Counsel had drafted the contract with almost no changes
from the previous contract. The charges are based on the number of service calls times the rate.
The rates were increased due to a 3 -percent pay increase, plus increased operating expenses. A
three-year running total average was used and the increase was blended in over three yea rs, rather
than having an initial spike in rates.
