On October 13, 2026, Broward County Commissioners voted to pursue legal action that would compel the sheriff’s office to allow entry to one of its facilities. The move targets Sheriff Gregory Tony and is linked to an ongoing budget dispute.
Commissioners say the conflict centers on how taxpayer dollars are being allocated within the county budget, prompting them to seek a court order for access.
The budget disagreement has therefore progressed to a legal battle over the sheriff’s facility.
