Warren Sheriff Faces State Budget Cut Strain

Warren County Sheriff R N Rollason faces a five percent cut to the 1975 76 budget from the State Compensation Board with two thirds of enforcement costs funded by the state. The directive halts new hires and requires vacancies to be approved, forcing more part time work and longer hours for deputies. Rollason proposes two extra part time deputies but the Board of Supervisors rejects, offering alternative appointments for the warden positions. The sheriff warns of reduced road coverage and increased reliance on special police to maintain law enforcement and jail security amid rising costs and illness among inmates.
