Not Descriptions and orders in detail on file in County Clerk's office. The following Communication was read: No. 20 Northwestern Wisconsin Peace Officers Association June 25, 1969 To: County Board, Bayfield County Via: County Clerk The Northwestern Wisconsin Law Enforcement Officers Association consists of Officers from various levels of government located in 22 Counties in Northwestern Wisconsin. The organization notes with some concern that the Counties are lagging behind other units of government, as well as private industry, in the pay of County Officers. This has caused some Counties to have difficulty in recruiting and keeping the high 2± type of individuals necessary to cope with the rising crime and ever increasing accident rates on our highways. 6 September 29, 1969 It has also been noted that some Counties did not even give raises sufficient to keep pace with the rise in the cost of living in the past year. This cost of living is expected to increase by approximately five per cent in 1969. This organization feels that if we are to keep law enforcement on a local basis, capable men must be recruited and trained to protect the public, and enforce the various laws. The present salaries now paid in most of our Counties are not conduce ive to this end. We respectfully suggest that the various County Boards give serious consideration to granting substantial raises to their Officers. We see no reason why County Off- icers should not be paid as well as Officers in the larger cities in any given County, or as well as State Officers doing comparable work. Our organization is dedicated to the betterment of law enforcement', and we feel the time has come to speak out in support of our brother law enforcement officers employed by the counties. Thank you for your consideration of the above suggestions. Gerald K. Clay, Sec. Treas. N. W. P. 0. A.
