Daniels County adopts resolution setting elected‑official pay
Summary
The Daniels County Board of Commissioners voted to adopt Resolution 2024‑13, accepting the Salary Compensation Board recommendation for elected‑official pay. Commissioners discussed pay structure, health‑insurance changes and per‑meeting pay rules before the motion carried unanimously.
The Daniels County Board of County Commissioners voted July 15 to adopt Resolution 2024‑13, setting compensation for elected county officials after receiving the Salary Compensation Board's recommendation.
Commissioners said the compensation follows the board's standard formula — a daily rate for an eight‑hour workday prorated for meeting attendance — and noted ancillary benefits such as mileage for out‑of‑town travel and single‑coverage health insurance. Commissioners and staff discussed recent prescription out‑of‑pocket increases and how those affect take‑home pay.
Christy Jones (recorded in minutes as handling documents) explained the Salary Compensation Board recommendation and presented the resolution for a formal vote. A motion to adopt the resolution was made and seconded; the board called for the vote and commissioners signified approval. The chair signed the resolution to complete the action.
The change will be entered into county records and the resolution will be kept with the county's resolution book and budget documentation. Commissioners said they expect routine administrative adjustments to benefits and clarified that future changes to pay or benefits will be addressed through the same compensation and budget channels.
The board moved on to other agenda items after signing the document.
