Local Cullman County amendment to create a Sheriff’s Discretionary Fund for prisoner feeding and to set the sheriff’s salary equal to the Judge of Probate’s, starting next term.
All allowances or amounts the Cullman County Sheriff receives for feeding prisoners would be deposited into a separate Sheriff’s Discretionary Fund in the county treasury to be used for feeding prisoners in the county jail. Any funds in the fund above what is needed for feeding prisoners could be used by the sheriff for law enforcement purposes and sheriff’s office operations, and would carry over from year to year. Beginning with the next term of office, the sheriff’s annual salary would be equal to the annual salary of the Judge of Probate of Cullman County (excluding election-related pay). The sheriff would not be subject to the competitive bid law for purchasing food or supplies used to feed prisoners.
