The decision by Sheriff Christina Corpus to spend $74,000 on a custom conference table coincides with intensified scrutiny of her role as sheriff amid allegations of misconduct.
Supervisor David Canepa expressed surprise at the purchase, remarking, "That's an expensive table, and it may be the most expensive table in the history of San Mateo County."
The Sheriff's Office, as confirmed by Assistant County Attorney David Silberman, has not been invoiced for the table yet, which raises concerns over potential additional expenses.
Voters will decide on March 5 whether to amend the County Charter, allowing the Board of Supervisors to remove Sheriff Corpus from office amidst ongoing controversies.
