Jim Rudisill for The Hawk Eye WAPELLO — Although the remaining Fiscal Year 2022 budget proposals for Louisa County departments and other spending categories were reviewed Friday by the county board of supervisors, it was a later discussion on dealing with next year’s proposed salary increases that ended up dominating the meeting. The salary discussion has been the elephant in the room for the supervisors since the budget reviews began last week. Traditionally the supervisors have provided a general percentage amount to the various departments, and the department heads then have incorporated that salary increase into their individual spending plans. Often the percentage figure supplied by the supervisors has been based on the percentage increase recommended for the county’s elected officials by the county compensation board.
