SUMMARY

Each year following budget deliberations your Board adopts the annual salary ordinance.

The ordinance is the base document identifying the number of authorized positions and classifications for all County jobs. It also establishes the compensation and certain benefits other than base pay for County officers and employees for fiscal year 2007-2008. Base pay and other compensation is established by resolution for each employee group and is listed herein as the amount paid for each bi-weekly pay period for information only. Throughout the year salary ordinance amendments indicate changes in positions and the compensation established herein that occur in the various operating departments.

The total number of positions authorized by your Board during budget hearings is 5,830. Thirty-eight (38) positions were added during FY 06-07 and seventy-five (75) positions were added in the Fiscal Year 2007-2008 budget.
