Walworth County Salary Vote and Emergency Updates | Pierre News

Walworth County Commissioners voted to approve a new pay structure that includes a 3% raise plus an extra dollar for department heads and a flat $1 bump for all other employees — including the Sheriff’s office — after Register of Deeds Brenda DeToy presented her case. Commissioner Justin Jungwirth abstained from the vote. The meeting also covered Mike Nehls’ public endorsement of the commissioners, emergency management updates including a drone-assisted boater rescue and approval of FEMA grant documents, and confirmation that July’s county books were balanced — with landfill status also reviewed. Next meeting: Wednesday, September 2nd. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
