DAVENPORT – The Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office seems to be on a hiring spree. Over the last eight months, the sheriff has hired one King County deputy, a Seattle police officer, a Tacoma police officer and a Washington State Trooper. The sheriff told iFIBER ONE News that he is welcoming law enforcement who feel underappreciated, and while the pay in Lincoln County may be a fraction of what westside law enforcement earns, the new recruits can appreciate that the cost of living in Lincoln County is more affordable, at 12% below the national average.
