County Referendum 1: Establish An Independent Salary Commission Charter Amendment

A five-member independent commission would set county commissioners’ salaries annually, replacing their fixed annual salaries.

Commissioner pay would follow an annual panel decision, with no replacement amount set by the measure.

Salary panel appointments would give the state attorney and public defender a member to select each.

Salary panel appointments do not exist under today's fixed commissioner salary rule.

County voters could speak at public hearings before the panel sets commissioner pay.

County voters now must approve a charter amendment to change the fixed salary rule.

County spending currently supports board operations under the fixed commissioner salary rule.
