County commissioners approve intern amid process dispute
Athens County Commissioners voted 2 to 1 to hire an intern dating Commissioner Adkins’ grandson, after weeks of questions about the hiring process.

The intern, a Hocking College student, will earn $8.10 per hour through August 31 as the billing clerk duties continue to be filled by interns and local staff.
