(KNZA)--Doniphan County Commissioners will be receiving a $1 an hour pay raise for 2026 instead of $1.50, as previously approved. 

That follows action taken by the Commission Monday. 

According to the unofficial meeting minutes, the Commission voted 2-1 to reduce the commissioners 2026 pay increase by 50 cents an hour.  Commissioner Wayne Grable cast the dissenting vote. 

Prior to the vote, Grable had been a motion to exclude County Commissioners from the 2026 pay increases that were approved last week.  However, the motion died due to the lack of a second. 

The pay increases are effective January 1st.
