Wilson County budget workshop weighs staffing and pay hikes
Wilson County officials led by County Judge Marvin Quinney discussed staffing and salary increases at a July 14 budget workshop. Sheriff Joe Tackitt Jr seeks a receptionist and 8 percent raises, while Constable George Scoggins requests a 12?000 increase and EMS eyed hires. Health and public works officials propose an engineer and an office worker funded partly by permits and potential Homeland Security reimbursements. Library and clerk offices seek extra staff and tech upgrades, with animal control debated as a possible county department costing up to 60,000 annually and a proposed 1,800 square foot facility at the Criminal Justice Center in Floresville.
