authority of the sheriff to discipline any employee in accordance
with county personnel policies, and memoranda of understanding, or
rules, regulations, and procedures otherwise applicable, and except
as otherwise expressly provided in this section, the discretion of
the sheriff to assign, promote, direct, and control employees
formerly assigned to the marshal's office shall not be deemed in any
manner restricted by virtue of the abolition or consolidation.
