Commissioner Virgil Watkins will draw on his work as an UNUM fellow to assist the county with equity issues.

CLARIFICATION:  The Tweet mentioning the incentive pay for public safety workers is misleading. While Macon-Bibb County’s incentive pay based on years of service will be included in future retirement calculations, Governor Brian Kemp’s $1,000 bonus for public safety workers will not be included, per Mayor Lester Miller.
