Frederick County - Sheriff - Salary
HB 1197 adjusts the salary of the Frederick County Sheriff to match the highest step of a Maryland State Police lieutenant colonel's pay under the current State Police pay plan. It directly affects the Frederick County Sheriff, setting their annual salary equal to that position's top pay level. The bill requires that any future changes to State Police pay would not apply to the current sheriff but would take effect at the start of the next term. This change takes effect October 1, 2025, for new terms of office.
