Limestone County sheriff gets fixed base pay

The law takes effect October 1, 2026. It sets next-term sheriff pay at 85% of the highest-paid judge’s annual salary in the Thirty-ninth Judicial Circuit Court. Beginning January 18, 2027, a $149,000 annual base salary replaces that formula. The sheriff continues to get cost-of-living and other uniform raises that the county commission grants to all county employees. The sheriff cannot personally profit from the food account used to feed county and state prisoners.
