One of the major things we will be covering this week is a motion by Stafford County Supervisor Mark Dedenhefer, R – Garrisonville, and his proposal to freeze the pay-raises members of the board sucessfully voted on in December. The raises are set to be in full in January of next year, according to Dudenhefer.
"The thought of possibly laying employees off and not giving raises to the rest while board members pad their wallets is repulsive to me. Some may say this is ‘grand standing,' but I for one have been consistent and vocal in my position,” said Dedenhefer in a released statement.
It’s no secret the county governments are strapped for cash these days. Spotsylvania County is looking to take similar measures. It will be interesting to see how this one plays out in Tuesday’s board meeting. Look for coverage of this story this week in the Stafford County Sun.
