BROWARD COUNTY, Fla. — Broward Mayor Mark Bogen was denied entry to a Broward Sheriff’s Office training facility Monday, escalating a dispute between county commissioners and Sheriff Gregory Tony over the agency’s budget and oversight. Bogen went to the training center after saying he would try to tour it. About 20 minutes after arriving, with cameras recording, he was refused access. The sheriff’s office controls the building and can deny entry, but commissioners say they want to inspect the facility after approving nearly $900 million for BSO’s core budget. Bogen cited amenities including a gym, sauna, spa, massage services and a cold plunge, saying residents should be able to see how public money is being spent. He said commissioners planned to vote at 9 a.m. Tuesday on whether to pursue judicial action to gain access. Tony, speaking publicly about the budget conflict for the first time, said he would not let the sheriff’s office be “bullied or intimidated.” He also alleged that Bogen asked him for a political action committee donation after Tony sought raises for deputies during two lunch meetings in late June. Bogen denied Tony’s account and called the sheriff a “compulsive liar” in a phone interview. The dispute comes amid broader questions about the sheriff’s authority over county services. Commissioners recently voted to return the fire department to civilian control and hired a firm to examine whether a separate police force should patrol the county airport and seaport. After that decision, commissioners received subpoenas seeking information about the review. State prosecutors had not responded to a request for comment by Monday afternoon. The access dispute puts public scrutiny of county spending and the balance of authority between elected commissioners and the independently elected sheriff at the center of an increasingly contentious debate.
