On that date, deputies must be
paid overtime if they work
more than 240 hours in 28 days
—and that hour allowance will
be reduced during the next
two years. This means that the
Sheriff’s Department will have
to employ at least six additional
deputies to maintain three
eight-hour shifts. Dispatchers
also must be paid for overtime.
Another effect of the wage
and hour law is that the Court
will probably abolish the offi-
ces of special deputies and
deputy constables because of
the record-keeping job that
would be required to keep tabs
on straight time and overtime
for these jobs.
Fifty thousand dollars more
will be cut from the total to
maintain the County’s land-fill
garbage compaction system,
which was purchased in 1973.
“Public Transportation” will
get $54,240, divided as follows;

marked to supplement the Road
and Bridge Fund.
Silsbee, Kountze, and Sour
Lake public libraries will get a
total of $36,400, including $11,-
400 promised them from the
1973- 74 RS allocations. If the
50/25/25 funding ratio is main-
tained, Silsbee will get $18,200
and the others $9,100 each.
Finally, in the "Financial Ad-
ministration" slot, $28,368 will
go to purchase additional fit-
tings to enable the County’s
computer to process voter reg-
istration cards and maintain
the Tax Roll; and the County
Clerk’s office will get $3,000
to contract for new index bind-
ers.
The possibility of a general
tax hike was mentioned sever-
al times during the morning
session as Commissioners
wrestled with at familiar prob-
lem—stretching ‘the money to
pay the bills.
More on taxes surely will be
heard when the Court meets
this summer to finalize the
