Response to Calvert County Sheriff's FOP
1. What would your position be to make all courthouse deputies become 40 hour employees? Currently, 5 are part time employees and it leaves the courthouse short staffed on occasion.
It is unacceptable to have occasions where security is not properly manned at the courthouse. I would support adjustments to ensure sufficient satisfaction of manning requirements.
2. In the last 8 years deputies have lost four pay steps, had no adjustments to their pay scale, and have had minimal cost of living raises. During this same time period County Employees have only lost two pay steps. This situation affects bring home pay, OT rates, retirement contribution and ultimately our total retirement. Do you have a plan for the deputies to recover their pay steps and receive pay raises that they deserve?
Deputies deserve pay equity, particularly since they perform among the most dangerous functions on behalf of the county citizens. The plan would be to provide pay equity.
3. Do you support Collective Bargaining for the deputies?
If yes, to what extent? If no, why not?
Yes.
4. Would you ever consider forming a Police Department in Calvert County?
No. As long as the population of Calvert County does not exceed projected “Build-out” of 31,000 residences, the current Sheriff’s Office and State Police presence appears appropriate.
5. Over the last 8 years the Sheriff’s request for more deputies has been reduced every year. Every year the Sheriff’s Office responds to more calls for service with inadequate staffing, which puts deputies at risk. What is your opinion on the current staffing of the Sheriff’s Office? Are you willing to increase manpower to proper levels for the county’s population?
Yes. I did a ride-along with the Sheriff’s Office over a year ago and saw first-hand the manning constraints. I support increased numbers of Sheriff Deputies and improved tools.
6. The county currently has a policy that requires deputies injured in the line of duty to stop receiving regular pay checks. While the deputy is off recovering from the work related injury they receive payments from workers compensation. The injured deputy must pay for healthcare out of these workers compensation checks and doesn’t receive credit towards retirement during the recovery time. What is your opinion of this policy? Are you willing to work with the FOP on revising the policy?
Yes.
