Dayton commissioners approve pay raise

Interestingly enough- Commissioner Joey Williams, voted no. Of course, he’s the one with the best full time job – as local bank president for Chase.

For Mayor McLin who works as Mayor full time, she now makes around what Commissioner Whaley made when she worked for the County Auditor before she became a commissioner.

Commissioner Lovelace has always been taken care of by the University of Dayton.

The big question is will this raise help improve the caliber of future candidates?
