Motion for 4% countywide wage increase fails for lack of a second; item moved to Nov. 4
Summary
A proposal by Commissioner Francis Hass to approve a 4% salary increase for 2026 failed for lack of a second; the board postponed further action to the Nov. 4 meeting for additional discussion.
Commissioner Francis Hass moved on Oct. 7 to approve a 4% salary increase for county employees for 2026. The motion did not receive a second and therefore failed; the board directed that the item be placed on the Nov. 4, 2025 agenda for further consideration.
No financial analysis or funding source was recorded in the minutes during the Oct. 7 discussion; the record reflects a motion only and not an amended proposal or alternative percentage. The failure to secure a second leaves the current salary schedule unchanged until commissioners revisit the item at the November meeting.
