County Administrator Wes Minder said the designation signals the commission’s continued support for law enforcement and noted the county’s public-safety budget has grown (he cited an increase from $12.3 million in 2022 to current levels, per staff comment). Minder also said one potential benefit of certification is eligibility for additional state grants.
The motion to approve the resolution passed 3-0. No grant applications or new program commitments were approved at the meeting; the vote only authorized staff to support the sheriff’s application for certification.
