Linn County seeks 5 percent raise for elected officials
About 20 Linn County employees urged the Board of Supervisors to approve the Compensation Board's full 5 percent pay raise for elected officials. Raises for deputies are tied to elected officials' salaries, so higher elected official pay boosts deputy pay. The board planned to decide on the raises and an $83.6 million next year budget, with salaries for supervisors, auditor, treasurer, and recorder rising to $70,943 and the county attorney to $111,940 depending on state judges' pay.
