Commission approves 50¢ raise for newly certified paramedic
Summary
Commissioners voted unanimously to raise the hourly pay of a paramedic referred to as Moss by $0.50 (from $17.54 to $18.00) after a motion and second during the meeting.
Commissioners approved a $0.50 hourly raise for a county paramedic after a motion and second during the meeting. The motion was framed as recognition for the employee's new paramedic certification; the board voted 'aye' and the motion carried.
Two speakers discussed the increase during the motion and vote. One commissioner moved the raise and another seconded; a member stated during the vote, "We give Mitch Moss a 50¢ raise because he's a paramedic." The transcript contains inconsistent first names (one speaker referred to 'Nick Moss' while another said 'Mitch Moss'); the board record provided at the meeting did not resolve that discrepancy on the record.
