State Industry Board Approves 6 Pay Increases
The State Board of Industry and Trade approved pay raises for six top executives led by Director Jack Minter whose salary moves toward the $16 000 to $18 000 range. The action follows a personnel committee recommendation and requires Merit Board approval for all but Minter. Gov. Sanders plans to add funds from a state surplus about $900 000, on top of $1 million appropriated for the biennium. The board also postponed a $27,000 airplane purchase from the Game and Fish Commission, sending the plan to a committee for review.
