Fight for more SROs in Volusia County

It's the latest volley in the dispute between Volusia County schools and the county council over money to pay for new school resource deputies. Following a heated council meeting, Volusia County Schools CFO Todd Seis said in a statement that, “earnest efforts were met with a surprising level of disrespect and disregard by the County Council.” The district had asked the council for $300,000 dollars for the seven deputies. None of the county council members was available to give their take on the statement.
