The meeting was convened to discuss the county's financial condition, including assessed valuation, sales tax revenue, and general revenue fund balances. There was a discussion regarding RSMo 50.327 subsection 4, specifically whether to extend the salary table due to the county reaching the ceiling of $300 million of assessed valuation. A motion was made and seconded to discuss raising the ceiling, which received unanimous approval. A motion was made to extend the salary table in $50 million increments until the valuation reaches $500 million by increasing whatever percentage that $2,000 would be. Also, the coroner's salary was discussed and a motion was made to increase it by $14,000.
