Warren County commissioners are considering pay raises for county employees. Currently on the table is $1,000 for full-time employees and $500 for part-time. Budget and Finance Committee members met Monday to consider the county’s proposed budget for fiscal year 2013-14, including the county’s general fund and the possibility of raises for employees.According to figures given to the committee by finance director Linda Hillis, giving every employee a $1,200 raise would add $414,400 to the budget on an annual basis, while an $800 raise adds $276,400 and a $1,000 raise adds $345,300.“The school is giving an $800 bonus,” said Commissioner Ken Martin.
