There is a little advertised meeting on the 25% increase at Colony Rec Center at 5m today (Tuesday, 7/3). See you all there.
Sumter County commissioners start out at over $50,000 per year, some earn well over $80,000 per year. It's not even a full time job. Plus they get benefits. Nice gig if you can grift it.
