(KAIR)--A pay raise for the new year.
That follows end of the year action taken by the Atchison County Commission, who approved the 2-percent increase for elected officials and department heads.
Approval didn't come without discussion, as Commissioner Jeff Schuele pointed out that several department heads, including the County Treasurer, the Register of Deeds, and the Administrator of Atchison Senior Village, requested pay increases above the 2-percent recommended by the Commission.
Schuele made a motion to turn down that request, and was joined by his two fellow Commissioners, Chairman Bill Pohl and Eric Noll, in denying the request.
Noll then moved to approve the original 2-percent increase, with the Commission voting unanimously in favor of that measure.
The increase did not include the County Commission.
