•November 8, 2017•

The Moultrie County board personnel committee agreed to recommend an additional $300 annual salary increase for county employees to the county board for vote Nov. 9. They had previously approved $1000 annual increases in the tentative 2018 budget

A motion by Gary Smith and seconded by Kevin McReynolds  approved the additional $300 with Ron White dissenting.

The recommendation for across the board raises was prompted following requests from Supervisor of Assessment Lori Barringer to give three full time office employees a one time $2000 bonus.

Circuit Clerk Cindy Braden also proposed a one time $2000 bonus for eight employees.

Motions for both bonuses failed for lack of a second.     Login or Subscribe to read the rest of this story.
