Way out of line | 6:52 a.m. June 18, 2008
$94,000 a year was way too much to pay these commissioners, now they've made things more sickening by adding another nine grand a year to their paychecks. This is the most disgusting disservice by public officials that I've ever heard of.

Or we will Get RID OF YOU! What a joke. Earn your check and stop taking from mine

These salaries are in line with what they would make in the private sector with responsibility for a similar sized budget and number of employees. Lighten up folks, if you pay elected officials measly salaries, you'll only have millionaires or substandard people in office.
