(KLZA)-- Richardson County Commissioners will review a request again December 13, to advance a hiring bonus to a person interested in becoming a full-time Richardson County Deputy Sheriff.
The County Attorney's Office is preparing a contract to enter into with employees.
Sheriff Rick Hardesty was unable to meet with the Board Tuesday. The Board will also discuss next week the possibility of purchasing a drug dog.
Sheriff Hardesty told MSC News a second drug dog in Richardson County would allow more opportunities to have a dog in schools and would also take some of the load off the the current dog handler and drug dog.
Hardesty said the drug dog handler works a regular shift but is often called out for service once that shift ends.
The Board also adopted the Richardson County Local Operation Plan to provide for a coordinated response to a disaster or emergency within Richardson County.
The purchase of a docking station for the satellite phone for the Cooper Nuclear Station in an amount of $1,575 was also approved.
