A new survey has found many law enforcement officials around the state view their funding levels as inadequate.
The Center for Local, State, and Urban Policy at the University of Michigan says its latest Michigan Public Policy Survey sought the input of all 1,856 general purpose local governments in Michigan on a range of issues, and this year’s census also focused on police. Report author Debra Horner tells us statewide, about 59% of sheriffs and 45% of police chiefs said they get too little funding. She says she was surprised by how the numbers shook out.
