Pulaski County Council Approves Salary Ordinance Revisions

A list of salary adjustments was approved by the Pulaski County Council Tuesday. It reflects previously-approved changes to the Community Development Commission project coordinator salary, as well as a few personnel changes to fill various vacancies. “It’s the change that you made last meeting on Krysten Hinkle,” Auditor Laura Wheeler explained, “and we have Marie Roth that was promoted to the 911 director and David Kain then went to part-time, and then we have Heather Rogers who is in Soil and Water, and she went from part-time to full-time, taking over from Quentin Blount.”

Hinkle’s overall salary was set at just under $43,000 for the rest of the year. Roth saw her hourly pay rate go up by $3.78, as part of her promotion. Rogers got a 15-cent-per-hour pay raise in her switch to full-time status.

Council members voted to update the county’s 2018 salary ordinance to reflect the changes.
