Supervisors Slash Salary Adjustment Fund for 1971 72 Budget
The County Board voted unanimously to cut $500,000 from a $1.4 million salary adjustment fund for 1971 72, with Administrative Officer Raymond D. Johnson hinting at further refinements possibly lowering the figure to $700,000. Protests are expected from the County Employes Assn and allied groups, who argue eight county data justify a larger raise, while Johnson cites regional data and wage reviews to justify cuts. Public hearings closed with a review set for July 27 to assess further reductions and other budget economies.
