Vigo County forwards a pay-grade increase and staff stipends for tax-office employees to the full council

What happened

An auditor's-office department head asked the budget committee to raise the deputy auditor tax supervisor position from pay grade 9 to pay grade 10, describing the job — yearly certified net assessed values, tax sales, abatements, and homestead processing — as unusually demanding. The same department head separately asked for a $2,500 annual stipend for three staff positions in the office, citing the extra hours those positions work, especially heading into a difficult budget season. The committee did not vote on either request.

The outcome

Forwarded to the full county council with no committee vote taken.
