Fond du Lac County employees would get a bigger pay raise next year under budget revisions being recommended by the county finance committee. County executive Al Buechel proposed a one percent increase in the 2021-22 budget. The county finance committee is recommending a 2.5 percent increase. County Board chairman Marty Farrell says the increase would be paid for through the county’s salary contingency fund and would not impact the tax rate. Farrell says the wage increase is necessary to maintain and attract new workers.
