Supervisors find funds for sheriff, district attorney

Supervisors find funds for sheriff, district attorney An additional $440,306 is headed for the Solano County Sheriff's Office and the District Attorney's Office under funding set for approval Tuesday by the Board of Supervisors. The money - $300,877 for the sheriff and $139,429 for the district attorney in the coming year - is from a state-sponsored Supplemental Law Enforcement Services Fund. "It's a very important appropriation from the state," said Michael Medvedoff, director of administrative services for the Sheriff's Office. "It helps a lot and we're able to do a lot with it." This year, not only has the state increased its services fund allocation to the sheriff's office and the district attorney by about $40,000, there were also unexpected revenue increases to the services fund last year and rollover savings that will be added to its pot.
