Officials in Michigan County Used Virus Money for Bonuses

Commissioners all Republicans last week voted to award more than $500,000 to dozens of county employees. It ranged from $25,000 for administrators to $2,000 for cleaning staff. All recipients got at least $1,000. Besides Root, commissioners John Plowman and Brandon Marks each received $10,000, and the other four commissioners got $5,000 each. Most commissioners are paid $10,000 a year for their part-time job, plus a stipend for meetings. “I think that I earned it, Commissioner Cindy Garber said of the bonus. “I work really hard at this job. I was here in-person all through this crazy year.” Commissioner Marlene Webster said she was “mortified” when money appeared in her bank account and didn t know she had voted to reward herself.
