SIOUX FALL, S.D. (KELO AM) - The Minnehaha County Commission today voted to increase its annual salary by 1.5% to $26,390 a year.
Commission Chair Cindy Heiberger wanted an increase to keep qualified residents interested in serving.
Heiberger says she hears from many constituents that says the Minnehaha County Commission does a lot more work than what its being paid.
