Calvert County commissioners voted yesterday not to dismantle the sheriff's department, the primary law-enforcement agency in the county for more than 300 years. In a 3-2 vote, the commissioners decided against creating a county police department that would have relegated the sheriff and his deputies to serving arrest warrants and other lesser duties. "I'm pretty pleased about it," said Sheriff John A. "Rodney" Bartlett, who was appointed in May by Gov. Parris N. Glendening. Barlett said the vote will allow the 97-person sheriff's department to continue its duties without the distraction of worrying about the office's future.
