Treasurers Salary Hike Proposed in Umatilla County
Judge support grows as Representative Barrett introduces a bill in Salem to raise county treasurer G W Bradley from 1200 to roughly 1800 per year to oversee funds. Another Barrett measure would regulate county money deposits, with Pendleton handling most business and no single bank in full control. Local business leaders call the current 1200 salary ludicrously low while Bradley is bonded for 50000 and must cover bond costs.
