Ms. Miller indicated the purpose of the meeting was to discuss
compensation of all the election inspectors and counting board members for the
recently held State Primary Election on August 7, 2018. Ms. Miller indicated Susan
Nash, City Clerk, would like to increase all compensation checks by $20.00 for this
election due to extreme heat encountered by workers at the polling locations and the
time involved to process the significant volume of Absentee Ballots by the counting
board members. Ms. Miller relayed there is adequate funding in the budget to do so
and stated Clerk Nash would most likely call a meeting to discuss increasing the
compensation of election workers on a permanent basis, possibly prior to the General
Election in November 2018.
