The definition for "rein" -- when used as a verb as it was here -- from wiktionary.org is: "To stop or slow a horse by pulling the reins; To stop or slow something, by exercising control."Thus, the sentence in question indicates that the group believes the board (Maricopa County Board of Supervisors) needs to stop or slow Sheriff Arpaio by exercising control. When the word "rein" is used in this way, it is most commonly expressed as "rein in", as it was in this instance.
