The Marshall County Highway Supervisor may soon get a pay raise.
Commissioner Kevin Overmyer suggested the bump in salary for Highway Supervisor Jason Peters since he’s assumed more responsibilities that weren’t part of his duties when he began the position. Overmyer said the amount of overtime Peters has put in is extensive.
Overmyer said he will appear before the county council on Monday, April 9, to discuss an increase of $6,000 or $8,000 a year to bring him up to $55,000 or $57,000 in salary. Commissioners Mike Delp and Kurt Garner agreed to take the request to the council to gather opinions.
