Judges raise concern about court clerk pay; board defers a raise until next budget cycle
Summary
Judges told Supervisor Casey Eckler they were worried the court clerk's annual salary of $16,322 (about $17/hour) makes retention difficult. The board said the 2025 budget had already been adopted and declined to change salary now; it agreed to revisit the matter at the next budget workshop in September.
Supervisor Casey Eckler told the board that the judges had expressed concern about the court clerk's yearly salary of $16,322, which he said averages about $17 per hour, and that the clerk has expressed interest in seeking employment elsewhere for higher pay. Eckler reported the judges view the clerk as a "valuable asset" to court operations.
The board discussed the limits of the already-adopted 2025 budget and decided that a salary change is not possible until the next budget process. The matter was referred to the next budget workshop in September for consideration; no immediate salary action was taken.
