Durham County board approves salary adjustments for staff who report to commissioners
Summary
After a closed session, the Durham County Board of Commissioners approved percentage pay increases for several positions that report to the board; the motion carried 4-0. The transcript lists specific percentage changes for named roles, though some role-to-percentage mapping in the reading was unclear in the record.
The Durham County Board of Commissioners on Aug. 25 approved a package of salary adjustments for positions that report directly to the board, following a closed-session evaluation.
The chair reported the board had "come to the decision of these salary changes for the positions that report to the Board of Commissioners," then read percentage changes recorded in the meeting record. The transcript lists the following increases as read at the dais: Clerk to the Board 12.91%; county attorney 10.42%; chair 3.36%; commissioner 1.4%; manager 6.78%; register of deeds 1.127%; and tax administrator 12.126%. Commissioner Burton moved the motion and Vice Chair Doctor Lee seconded; the board approved the changes 4-0. As the chair stated after the vote, "These changes are approved." (Chair Alom)
The board did not publish more granular packet materials in the meeting transcript about base salaries or the effective dates beyond the reading at the dais. The action was recorded as a formal approval; the clerk will reflect the changes in personnel records and payroll per county procedure.
