i mi pi 'i 1 1 'P For Cbuhty Payi Hike No Gh eers By DICK PRAUL SANTA BARBARA Various county elective officials have received salary boosts. 'effective next January 7, starting next year, "key appointive personnel will be closer to salary range 47." These were identified as Public "Works Director Norman Caldwell, Road Commissioner Leland Steward and Planning Director Richard S. Whitehead. The elective officers indicated, they felt the supervisors would have been justified in putting them all in a higher range than they were given. Some pointed out County Auditor Albert T.

Eaves Jr. is slated for a sizeable boost from $12,000 up well beyond raise if such a pay raise is granted by the supervisors in the next few years to general employes and appointive department-heads. They also asked that the other elective officials. Grim, Page and the recorder be moved up another notch to salary range 44. Blanket Five The board earlier had agreed tovirigthe elective officials a blankeTfive per cent pay boost the next time such an increase is given to general employes and non-elective officials.

They wanted a legal interpretation, however. But County Counsel Robert K. Cutler threw cold water on this plan. He said it would amount to increasing pay of elective officials during a term of office. This was strictly prohibited by law, he said.

By advancing the elective Watson also lost out on a proposal that would place newly-elected officials in a Jower bracket than those reelected to the office. He said those with the added experience should get more to start a term with. Cutler agreed this was "logical," but he felt the listing of two different salaries for the same job, depending on who won it, would net be constitutional. Supervisor Veril C. Campbell, of Lompoc, pointed out two listed salaries would complicate filing fees for the job, as well.

During the session, Campbell once again voiced criticism of spiraling salaries for county department heads. He had opposed giving appointive department heads a five per cent raise last year wuen it was granted to general employe. admitted at on point that "maybe we mad a mistake In giving the appointive officials that five per higher range calling for a salary of $11,354 the first year and on up to $13,152 by the fourth year. The treasurer and tax collector now get $10,000 a year and the recorder $9,000. County Clerk J.

E. Lewis, Treasurer Paul Grim, Sheriff James W. Webster and Tax Collector A. Leonard Page were the elective officials in the room when the supervisors discussed the parity plan. "Do you feel happy about this?" Supervisor Joe J.

Callahan, of Santa Barbara, the board chairman, asked the group of elective officials after the action was taken. Somewhat glumly, County Clerk Lewis replied: "We are not in a position to look a gift horse in the mouth. We are happy to get what we can." Lewis then went on to say that while he and the sheriff and the assessor will be placed in salary range 45 from the Board of Supervisorsbut they are doing no cheering about it today. A number of the officials queried by The Times stated we feel we will still be far behind county appointive department heads in the salary range in the next few years and afterward despite this so-called parity action." At a special meeting late Wednesday, the supervisors voted unanimously to boast the pay of the sheriff-coroner, county clerk and county assessor from $12,000 annually to a new range starting at $13,152 for the first year and leading up to $15,228 in four years. Higher Range At the same time, the board voted to place the county treasurer, county tax collector and county recorder in a starting next year, by legislative action.

The supervisors and the district attorney also have pay ranges set by legislative action. During the session. Sheriff Webster and Page vainly Fire Department Ctec tried to get the board to ad officials to range 46 and 43 in the A brackets, and providing vance them and Lwii to the next higher salary range, 47, agreeing to forego asking for a five percent blanket pay for the bracketed increases I cent raise." each year for four years, the The supervisors took action test.
