The board voted unanimously to decline a pay hike in 2021.
County commissioners, with the exception of Dave Miller, will again earn $37,518. Miller, for the fourth year in a row, will be paid $34,755, the amount commissioners made in 2016. Miller has said he feels that amount is sufficient.
Whomever is elected chair next month will get a bit more, $38,058, as the chairâs job is more involved. Because the board rotates the chair, itâs expected Jeff Docken will conduct meetings in 2021.
Per diems, the amount paid to commissioners for attending certain meetings, were also approved Tuesday. Theyâll remain at $75 per day, and $100 per meeting when serving on the Planning Commission or Board of Adjustment.
