The Mahaska County Board of Supervisors wants to talk further with the County’s compensation board before voting on pay increases for elected officials.  At Tuesday morning’s (1/22) meeting, the County Board discussed various proposals.  Board Chairman Mark Groenendyk said he favored a three percent across the board increase for elected officials, while Supervisor Steve Parker favored a 5.3 percent increase for the County Sheriff, a four percent raise for the County Attorney and smaller raises for the remaining elected officials.  The County Board voted to table the matter and ask the compensation board to meet and have a proposal ready for the County Board to consider by their next meeting on February 4.  But four of the six members of the compensation board must agree to hold a meeting, so there’s no guarantee the County Board will get a new proposal.
