Stolle asked the Virginia Beach City Council to approve a 9.3 percent bonus for himself last year and council members agreed, helping bump his gross salary to $163,652. The City Council unanimously passed the same bonus this past week.
"He's deserving," Mayor Will Sessoms said.
The state used to provide the bonus as an incentive for sheriffs in the career development program. To qualify, sheriffs had to get their office accredited, have clean audits, allow employees to participate in a state master deputy program and take eight hours of training, said Robyn M. de Socio, the executive secretary of the Virginia Compensation Board, which administers the program.

How much does the average deputy make? Thats the true question. What are their patrol vehicles look like? Do they have state of the art equipment?
$163,000 a year for a sheriff? Wow. I never knew that made that much.
