Cayuga County Eyes Salary Study For Nonunion Workers
Cayuga County appoints a committee to craft a salary plan by midsummer for nonunion employees while lawmakers await the study before any raises. County Legislature Chair Ralph W. Standbrook announced last Tuesday that no pay hikes will be issued until the review is complete. Standbrook says the current system is flawed and politically influenced, as a county-wide raise already approved for Sheriff Peter Pinckney is being scrutinized amid broader pay reform efforts.
