The bill amends Section 7-4-2503 of the Montana Code Annotated to allow counties to provide compensation to reserve deputy sheriff's officers. The new legal language specifies that a reserve deputy sheriff's officer may be compensated in a manner determined by the board of county commissioners. This addition aims to formalize the compensation structure for reserve deputies, recognizing their contributions to law enforcement within the county.

Additionally, the bill replaces the term "salary" with "compensation" in the context of the provisions for reserve deputy sheriff's officers. This change reflects a broader understanding of the forms of remuneration that may be offered, potentially including benefits beyond just a salary. Overall, the bill seeks to enhance the support and recognition of reserve deputy sheriff's officers by allowing counties the flexibility to compensate them appropriately.
