§ 45-31-60. Compensation.
(a) This section shall apply only in Geneva County.
(b)(1) Commencing on June 1, 2009, the Coroner of Geneva County shall receive an annual salary of nine thousand six hundred dollars ($9,600) payable in equal monthly installments from the county treasury. The salary provided in this subsection shall be in lieu of any salary and expense allowance previously provided by law.
(2) After June 1, 2009, the coroner shall receive uniform increases in compensation in the same manner as provided in Section 11-2A-4. Longevity increases of the coroner shall be based on the average of longevity increases of all county employees as shown on county pay scales, as determined by the county commission. Longevity increases for the coroner shall be based on the coroner’s most recent period of time of continuous, uninterrupted service as a coroner. The coroner shall be entitled to receive longevity increases for up to the same number of years a county employee is entitled to receive longevity increases. Past service as a county employee shall not be counted in determining the number of years the coroner may receive longevity increases. Compensation increases provided for in this section shall be calculated based on the compensation of the coroner being received at the time the increases become effective for county employees. The inclusion of funds in the county budget, at the time of its approval, to cover the costs for compensation increases, as provided in this section, shall be considered the granting of an increase for whatever type of compensation increase funds are included in the county budget when it is approved. Compensation increases, as provided for in this section, shall be due without being subject to the limitation contained in subsection (b) of Section 11-2A-4.
