Jeff Davis County commissioners are set to consider increasing sheriff’s deputy salaries using state-provided SB22 funds during their April 14 meeting.
The proposal appears on the court’s general business agenda, where commissioners are expected to discuss and take possible action. SB22 funding, approved by the Texas Legislature, is intended to support rural law enforcement agencies, including boosting pay to improve recruitment and retention.
No specific salary figures were listed in the agenda materials. Commissioners are expected to review the proposal and determine how the funds would be allocated.
