The Citizen Compensation Com m ittee recommended that all other elected offi cials compensation should remain at their current level. Along with the stated in creases in com pensation the Citizen Compensation C o m m ittee also rec o m m ended a 3% COLA for all elected officials. The B u dget C o m m ittee re c om m ended that since the justice o f the peace is going to be filled with a new per son this year that increase should not be given at this time. The Budget Commit tee also stated that since the increase to the sheriff was so sm all that adjustm ent should be made in the fol lowing year. However, they did recom m end that the commissioners pay should be increased by one-half o f the am ount recom m end ed by the C om pensation Committee. After a lengthy discussion the court de cided to follow the recom mendations o f the Budget C om m ittee and increase the com m issioner’s com pensation by one-half of the recommended amount, no increase to the justice of the peace nor the sheriff at this time and then give all elected officials a 1.5% COLA.
