County considers 6% raise amid brighter fiscal outlook
County officials, led by Commissioner Jan Gauger, believe revenue projections improved enough to match City Hall's 6% raise. The board foresees only a small mill rate increase from 13.21 to 13.67 to fund the budget while holding line on new hires and equipment. Chairman Bruce Hamilton criticized sheriff and county attorney offices, claiming underperforming management and higher salaries for county attorneys.
