After a lengthy discussion at their meeting on Tuesday, the Washington County Board of Supervisors made a decision on the method of determining compensation for Washington County elected officials. Supervisor Jack Seward Jr. made the motion after stating he would disband the compensation board, “I know we don’t have to make a motion, but just to make it clear, I would offer up a motion that the Board of Supervisors take over the job of compensation. And if that dies for a lack of second that’s fine, it doesn’t hurt anything.” The motion passed in a vote of four to one with Supervisor Bob Yoder voting no.
