Committee votes to phase in one-day monthly payroll holdback starting in September to address processing timing

The committee approved a phased payroll timing change designed to reduce the county’s practice of paying employees before certain days of work have occurred. Under the agreed plan, the county will move the pay date by one day per month beginning with the county payroll cycle that falls at the end of September, creating a gradual holdback to improve cash-flow and allow staff extra processing time.
