Commission approves county benefits for Economic Development Board staff; EDB to fund difference
Summary
The commission voted to allow Robertson County Economic Development Board staff to participate in county employee benefits. Presenters said the EDB will fund any difference, so the change will cost the county nothing and aims to help recruitment and retention.
