HB 1798 -- Compensation for Sheriffs and Deputy Sheriffs Sponsor: Schad This bill establishes the minimum compensation for deputy sheriffs at $26,000 per year and creates the Public Safety Enhancement Fund which will be funded by an additional $20 fee charged for a sheriff's service of a summons, writ, or court order in civil cases. Ten percent of the moneys in the fund will be dedicated to the Sheriffs' Retirement Fund, and the remaining moneys will first be allocated to the counties on a per-capita basis to cover the increased compensation of deputy sheriffs and then to the MoSMART Fund.Copyright (c) Missouri House of Representatives
