DALTON, Ga. â Whitfield County Board of Commissioners chairman-elect Jevin Jensen said Friday he was surprised to watch last Monday nightâs commissionersâ meeting online and hear a claim by Chairman Lynn Laughter that some commissioners want to put off a vote on the countyâs pension plan until he takes office.
âI about fell out of my chair,â he said.
Commissioners were discussing a resolution to allow firefighters and sheriffâs office deputies covered by the pension plan to retire at age 55 with 25 years of employment with the county. They can currently retire at age 60 with 25 years of employment with the county or at 65 if they have fewer than 25 years.
