Chairman Bobby Orman pulled $6/hr. premium pay for deputies.
Department has lost 3 deputies since.
The premium pay should have never been taken from the deputies. Our job is to support our brave law enforcement as they keep our county safe. We want to create an environment and local government that makes Shelby County a desirable place to w
Chairman Bobby Orman pulled $6/hr. premium pay for deputies.
Department has lost 3 deputies since.
The premium pay should have never been taken from the deputies. Our job is to support our brave law enforcement as they keep our county safe. We want to create an environment and local government that makes Shelby County a desirable place to work in law enforcement. We have lost too many good people with valuable experience. That has to stop.
The Dive Team
Fiscal Responsibility
Law Enforcement
Sonny Ross unilaterally decided to stand down the dive team for questionable reasons.
The entire team resigned when Ross refused to step down from his committee and Orman would not remove him. Trust had been broken.
We promise to work with our brave first responders to empower them to do the vital lifesaving work they generously volunteer

The entire team resigned when Ross refused to step down from his committee and Orman would not remove him. Trust had been broken.
We promise to work with our brave first responders to empower them to do the vital lifesaving work they generously volunteer to do. Whether it is with the City of Shelbyville or bringing the team back to the county, we will do what it takes to get our divers back in the water where they belong. Our citizens and our visitors deserve to know that they are safe on our county's roads and waterways.
The Farm

Once again failed to plant crop for second season because board-appointed SA said the farm was a “cemetery.”
Lost revenue from the crop. Failed to maintain trust with contracted farmer.

Once again failed to plant crop for second season because board-appointed SA said the farm was a “cemetery.”
Lost revenue from the crop. Failed to maintain trust with contracted farmer.
We believe we can farm the county farm. HB 1076 the Farm Bill clarifies that legal right, and we intend to exercise that right to plant and harvest crops to support our county. Farm revenue reduces the burden on taxpayers. We should not let our ground go fallow. Our farm is a critical part of our local heritage. We should preserve its history and use the land to serve our county.

At a time of high CD rates, the ARPA (American Rescue Plan Act) funds were in saving's accounts earning less than 1% interest until July 2023.
Nearly $3 million of the $4.2 million of those funds is still available. Courthouse Windows are not done. Animal Control requested a truck that was then not purchased. The list goes on.

At a time of high CD rates, the ARPA (American Rescue Plan Act) funds were in saving's accounts earning less than 1% interest until July 2023.
Nearly $3 million of the $4.2 million of those funds is still available. Courthouse Windows are not done. Animal Control requested a truck that was then not purchased. The list goes on.
Failing to spend the American Rescue Plan Act Funds ($4.2 million) would be a catastrophic fiscal mistake. We need to plan and execute projects in a timely fashion.
Pinching pennies while allowing someone's political friends to bloat their budgets will not happen on our watch.
