Ref: Temporary Adjustment to the Grant County Sheriffs Office Operating
Hours
Dear Members of the Grant County Board of Commissioners,
I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to formally request a temporary
adjustment to the operating hours of the Grant County Sheriff s Office. Due to a
combination of pre -arranged leave and unforeseen absences among our office
staff, we are currently experiencing a significant shortage in personnel. This
situation has made it challenging to maintain our regular office hours and ensure
that all job duties are carried out effectively.
To address this issue, I propose that the Grant County Sheriffs Office temporarily
adjust its operating hours to 9:00 am to 4:00 pm, effective Monday, July 1 st,
2024. This temporary change will span a period of 4 to 6 weeks, during which we
anticipate some staff returning to provide additional support. The modified hours
will allow us to better allocate our limited resources and continue to serve the
community without compromising the quality and efficiency of our operations.
The proposed hours are designed to cover the core period of the day when public
demand is typically highest, thus minimizing any inconvenience to the residents
of Grant County. We are committed to communicating this temporary change to
the public and will take the necessary steps to ensure that the community is well-
informed about the adjustment.
Your approval of this temporary change will greatly assist us in managing our
current staffing challenges while continuing to fulfill our responsibilities to the
community. We appreciate your understanding and consideration of this request.
Should you require any further information or wish to discuss thisr
p oposal in
more detail, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
Aoeriete ?1��
Sheriff
Grant County Sheriffs Office
