A proposal to place deputies under Civil Service may need legislative action. A home rule charter could let sheriffs be appointed or eliminated in some counties. Rensselaer County studies such a charter while experts discuss mandates on local expenses and taxes. A plan would slow salary increases and require hearings and cost lists before passage. Other concepts include raising local tax powers for big communities and modifying base tax periods.
