KATV Channel 7 - The Spirit of Arkansas: Court approves raises for Faulkner county employees

Although there was confusion about when the last raise was given, it was believed that no raise was given in 2010 and the last raise given was in 2009. The court actually approved a 4 percent raise in 2010 but nothing outside of a $600 bonus in 2011.

According to Faulkner County Treasurer Regina Oakley, the various departments's budgets allowed the court to approve the raise this year.
