Union County Sole Commissioner Harold Collins announced last week that he was paid too much his first year in office, noting that he has corrected the issue for Fiscal Year 2026 and beyond. The correction lowers his salary by close to $18,000 versus 2025.
Collins’ actual salary as calculated using a formula provided by the Association County Commissioners of Georgia is $116,339.82, and not the $134,000 he made last year.
