He said this is a tough salary to <br /> deal with when competing with industry. He said a fund of$100,000 is not enough but would help <br /> put the salaries in the ballpark. <br /> President Buxton said the last item he wants to mention is a request for a sworn officer for <br /> the Orange County Durham Tech Campus. He said security at all college campuses is vital, and <br /> there are a lot of vacancies for campus police. He said there have been a few incidents at the <br /> Orange County Durham Tech Campus that have thankfully not escalated but have demonstrated <br /> the need for a sworn officer. <br /> Commissioner Fowler asked if the law enforcement officer is included in one of the <br /> amounts listed. <br /> President Buxton said it is not included on the slides but is part of the request. <br /> Andrew Kleitsch said the cost is $78,200 with salary and benefits. <br /> Commissioner Fowler asked if the state provides any money for campus police. <br /> Andrew Kleitsch said no, all funding comes from local sources for campus police. <br /> Commissioner Greene asked what the total amount of Durham Tech's request is outside <br /> of the Manager's recommended budget. <br /> President Buxton said they are requesting $65,000 to match the Durham County <br /> Manager's recommended funding, and $78,200 for the sworn officer position. <br /> Commissioner Greene asked what the slide above indicates in reference to those <br /> amounts. <br /> President Buxton said this slide is for context for the Recruitment and Retention fund. <br />
