Board approves retention bonuses for two tax‑assessor employees
Summary
Following an executive session on personnel, the Jones County Board of Commissioners approved retention bonuses for two employees in the tax assessor's office.
After an executive session addressing personnel matters, the Jones County Board of Commissioners voted on Oct. 7 to grant retention bonuses to two employees in the tax assessor’s office.
Commissioner Kitchens introduced the motion, saying the board wanted to recognize employees who had “gone above and beyond” and who had repeatedly stepped up during staffing shortages. The motion to grant the retention payments was moved and seconded and passed on a voice vote.
The board provided no specific dollar amounts or employee names during the public portion of the meeting. Commissioners said the action followed discussion in executive session; Georgia law requires personnel deliberations in executive session and public action (if any) to be taken in open session.
