Financially struggling NECAS doles out pay raises to 3 EMTs –

During the July 24, 2018, Northern Edgar County Ambulance Service board meeting, the board voted to increase the pay, thru “shift wages,” of three EMTs:

  • David Craig $600 per week
  • Tommy Elliot $500 per week
  • Vickey Johnson $450 per week

It was a unanimous vote.

The problem is this vote and these pay increases are invalid since the agenda did not list any action items pertaining to pay or pay increases. It is a violation of the Open Meetings Act to take action on items not listed on the meeting agenda for action.
