Confusion Over County Bosses Pay Raises Shocks Officials
County Commissioners moved quickly to fix a mistaken pay raise for 44 top officials who were included in a general raise. The proposal would have boosted the administrator from 24500 to 33500, while four others were excluded pending decisions. The minutes failed to record the July 10 raise action, and retroactive changes were made to July 21, granting a 70 dollar monthly raise to all non flat salaried employees and adjusting longevity and health benefits.
