Looks like it wasn't all about the county budget this year.
Some more issues are up for discussion in Thursday's commissioners meeting. Here's the agenda.
We'll bet that the heavy equipment tax will receive some lengthy discussion.
Commissioners will also discuss ending health insurance in retirement for employees hired in the future. That would save the county money, but make working for government less attractive.
If commissioners pass the resolution, it doesn't appear to affect future employees. So, those currently working for the county would not lose their retirement health insurance benefits.
A mainstay of many government jobs is a healthy benefits package including insurance, retirement savings and other perks. It appears that some of those benefits may be going the way of some county jobs that were shed this year.
