Comment on McHenry County Board votes to eliminate mileage reimbursements for board members

McHenry County Board votes to eliminate mileage reimbursements for board members

The McHenry County Board voted Tuesday to eliminate mileage reimbursements for board members to attend regularly scheduled meetings effective in 2022. The resolution, as initially written, would have eliminated this benefit effective immediately. However, the Administrative Services Committee voted earlier this month to delay the measure until 2022, the same time a separate proposal to eliminate health insurance benefits for County Board members could take effect. When combined, the elimination of mileage and health insurance benefits – which were spearheaded by board members Michael Vijuk, Kelli Wegener and Paula Yensen – are estimated to save about $317,000 a year.
