The Camden County freeholders on Thursday approved a $66,800 raise for Metro Police Chief Scott Thomson, bringing his annual salary to $230,000.
Thomson’s new contract guarantees that he will stay in Camden until at least 2019, county spokesman Dan Keashen said Friday.
“This is about retaining one of the sharpest law enforcement minds in the country,” Keashen said.
No county funds are used for the operation of the Camden County Police Department, which is paid for by Camden City and the state.
