Body
WHEREAS, the Personnel Department has conducted and participated in various salary surveys of local municipalities in order to determine whether Jackson County's salaries are in line with those of others as to maintenance, clerical, correctional and management positions; and,

WHEREAS, the position of Correctional Officer has been upgraded to a grade 9 affecting over 170 positions; and,
 
WHEREAS, the reevaluation and corresponding increase in grade and salary may lower turnover rates in various departments; and,
