Upon successfully completing the minimum standards of training and other requirements for law enforcement officers of the Peace Officers’ Standards and Training Commission, a person employed by the Houston County Work Release Commission as a community corrections officer shall have the same law enforcement powers, including powers of arrest, as granted to law enforcement officers of this state. The commission may expend funds for persons employed as community corrections officers to meet the minimum standards as law enforcement officers and may by rule and regulation provide for the reimbursement of amounts spent based on the employee’s continuing service with the commission for a reasonable length of time after receiving the training.
