Grant pushes civil service plan for deputy sheriffs
Linn County Sheriff Walter Grant proposes a bill to place deputies in counties with 50 000 or more people under civil service. The plan would require retirement fund contributions, competitive exams, and removal of political patronage, modeled on King County Washington. Grant plans to push the bill after recess and seeks input from sheriffs and lawmakers.
