Summary

After a public hearing, the Duchesne County Commission adopted Resolution 24-09: a 4.5% increase for the commission chair and a 3% increase for other elected officials, department heads and qualifying employees, effective for fiscal year 2025.

Following a public hearing at its Dec. 23 meeting, the Duchesne County Commission adopted Resolution 24-09 to set compensation increases for fiscal year 2025.

Court Auditor/Finance staff explained the resolution applies a 4.5% increase for the commission chair and a 3% increase for other elected officials (county attorney, assessor, clerk-auditor, recorder, treasurer and sheriff), as well as department directors, deputy directors and chief deputies. Commissioners said the slightly higher chair increase reflects additional responsibilities and noted that future years’ adjustments will align with the established percentage process.

The commission held the prescribed public hearing (with no remote participants recorded in the transcript), then voted to approve the resolution unanimously. Staff said the action meets statutory requirements and should be applied in the upcoming payroll cycle.
