The Chief Deputy in Lancaster County is making $139,000 but they <br /> are much larger. He stated the answer to the question is he resigning because of salary and <br /> the answer is no. The city attorney makes $135,000 but his office does not compare with the <br /> county there is still work to do about staffing in his office in the next 5 months. Jack stated it is <br /> not about the salary <br /> Arnold was confident that was not his motivation but he is concerned about the number because <br /> of what NACO may recommend. <br /> Schuppan we need to move forward and look at NACO's recommendations also. <br /> Arnold sure that was not the issue and if that was it he would not have accepted the job. Arnold <br /> also stated the board needs to look at NACO's recommendations also. <br /> 8 <br />
