# Council to consider a $4,500 clothing allowance for security officers, missed in last year's budget

## What happened
County staffer Devin (probable identification) told the council a $1,500-per-year clothing stipend for the county's three part-time building security officers, worth $4,500 total, was approved by the budget committee last year but was accidentally left out of the adopted salary ordinance and never brought to the full council for a vote. The amended salary ordinance and matching additional appropriation are meant to fix that omission.


## The outcome
Presented to the council for adoption; no vote was taken at this meeting.
