Allow me to be blunt - why would you care? If you are truly on County business, i.e. OPM, which I seriously doubt that, your travel expenses will be reimbursed in accordance to county policy. It does not concern you how much the County ends up paying.

Unless you are a county employee that has PC832 authority, like Sheriff, otherwise, the badge may get you some professional courtesy, but not discount from a hotel.
