NATCHEZ, Miss. – Adams County supervisors are deciding whether to give pay raises to county road department employees that are quitting “left and right” because of low salaries, depleting the county’s ability to maintain roads and provide other essential services.
“If we get much smaller, you are all going to be hollering,” Supervisor Kevin Wilson told his colleagues Monday. “If we don’t have a road department, we’re not going to have any roads.”
Board President Angela Hutchins said calculations will be made on how much the pay raises will cost the county so supervisors can make a decision later this month.
