Commissioners to vote on moving sheriff detectives from salary Grade 6 to 7
On Oct. 6, Teton County commissioners will consider reclassifying sheriff deputies working as detectives from salary Grade 6 to Grade 7, a change Human Resources says reflects the higher responsibility and training expected of investigators.
Teton County commissioners are set to vote Oct. 6 on reclassifying sheriff deputies working as detectives from salary Grade 6 to Grade 7, changing the position title to “Sheriff Deputy, Investigations” staff report packet. Human Resources says the move reflects that investigations work is treated as a promotion, with detectives expected to handle complex crime scenes and take primary responsibility for cases through prosecution. The staff report says there is no immediate fiscal impact because the impacted rank is already aligned at Grade 7, and staff recommends approval.
The prior record listed for this brief did not include an earlier Board decision on this specific detective reclassification.
