Kaplan City Court employees get 2.5% raise
Wed, 08/23/2017 - 2:45pm
Kaplan City Court employees can expect bigger paychecks after a city council vote during their regular meeting last Tuesday.
City Judge Stanton Hardee had requested the raise for his employees in April 2017, but was denied due to lack of funds.
The change of tide came when the continued participation in the Vermilion Parish Economic Development District came up for discussion during the meeting. This participation costs the city $10,000 a year.
“I spoke with other entities and they are backing out because they just don’t have any money,” said Mayor Champagne.
Three City of Kaplan employees were recognized at the Kaplan council meeting for their years of service to the City. Receiving recognition were (l-r) Wynn Hoffpauir for his 20 years of service; Rhonda Baudoin for her 20 years of service and Timmy Farris for his 30 years of service.
