Burnet County commissioners table request by constables for pay raise

BURNET — Burnet County commissioners Aug. 28 tabled a request by constables for a 30 percent pay raise approved the day before by a grievance committee.

The committee, composed of elected officials and residents, voted 7-2 Aug. 27 to recommend a salary increase to $45,758, based on the market rate of a recent salary survey. The entire committee supported a pay raise in general.

Meanwhile, the county commissioners could take up the issue again on Sept. 11.
