County manager Darrell Hampton’s contract was extended for one year Monday night by the Jackson County Board of Commissioners following a 30-minute closed session.
BOC chairman Hunter Bicknell and commissioners Bruce Yates, Dwain Smith and Tom Crow voted in favor of extending the contract. Commissioner Chas Hardy was not at the meeting due to a death in his family.
The BOC also discussed Hampton’s contract in a 30-minute closed session last week. No comments were made about the matter during the open session.

i should hope the county commissioners did not give the county manager a raise, as the county employees have not had one ine in at least four (4) or five (5) years. he did get a raise the earlier part of the year, and i think it was a vey heafty one!!!! the commissioners proabably should have cut his salary, to help "balance the county payroll" and the overall budget.

This was a bad move for sure. What were these commissioners thinking? This guy is a joke.
