HUTCHINSON, Kan. — Another push by Reno County Commissioner Dan Deming to further reduce salaries for commissioners is up for action during Tuesday’s agenda session.
Deming, who has been unsuccessful at completely eliminating salaries, will ask that commissioners receive $12,000 per
year, down $6,000 from the current mark. As in the past, the measure is being met with opposition from the other two commissioners who feel it will eliminate the opportunity for some citizens to run for the office. Deming is also proposing that the board meet just twice per month, something that both Commission Chair James Schlickau and Brad Dillon are opposed to.
Tuesday’s Reno County Commission meeting is set for 9 a.m. at the Reno County Courthouse.
