CARTER COUNTY SHERIFF CHRIS MATHES IS NOT HAPPY WITH THE NEW BUDGET THAT WAS RECENTLY PASSED BY COUNTY COMMISSIONERS. HE SAID THE MONEY THAT HAS BEEN SET ASIDE FOR HIS DEPARTMENT FOR THE NEXT YEAR, SIMPLY ISN’T ENOUGH……
CART…..
HE CONTENDS HIS OFFICERS AND OTHER EMPLOYEES ARE NOT GETTING PAID ENOUGH AND THERE’S A BIG NEED FOR MORE DEPUTIES AND OTHER EMPLOYEES. MATHES ALSO ADDED THAT IF MORE FUNDING ISN’T GIVEN, THEN SERVICES WILL BE CUT. HE HOPES THAT SOMETYPE OF CONSENSUS CAN BE REACHED IN ORDER TO AVOID HIM FILING A LAWSUIT AGAINST THE COUNTY. mathes.mp3
