Resolution to Amend the Sheriff’s Office 2026 Budget for Additional Allocation of Grant Funds to Combat Drug Trafficking within Sauk County

BACKGROUND: The Sheriff’s Office was awarded $22,784 from the Wisconsin Department of Justice to support the investigation and response to drug trafficking within the county.  The grant funds will be used to purchase critical investigative equipment and tactical enforcement tools.  These resources, including surveillance technology and officer safety gear, will enhance the Task Force’s ability to conduct effective drug investigations, improve safety for officers during high-risk operations and strengthen public safety by reducing the presence and impact of drug trafficking in Sauk County communities.

THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Sauk County Board of Supervisors, met in regular session, does hereby approve an amendment to the Sheriff’s Office 2026 Budget to allocate an additional $22,784 in grant revenues to offset expenses to combat drug trafficking within Sauk County.
