State grant cut forces sheriff staffing shuffle
Macomb County
Summary
The state reduced the Secondary Road Patrol grant, so two deputies have to move back onto the county's general fund — a $270,192 budget amendment plus a two-position change. Board Chair Sabatini flagged unresolved questions about how the county tracks sheriff positions and wants answers before the full board votes.
