| This legislation corrects contradictory laws regarding coroners' salaries. It clarifies that coroners in counties with a population of less than 35,000 are entitled to receive the state minimum salary plus the death investigation fee. Coroners in a county with a population of 35,000 or more are entitled to the salary established in local legislation or the death investigation fee. If the death investigation fee is more than the local legislation salary, the coroner may choose to receive the death investigation fee. The coroner must give the commissioners notice of the decision to receive the death investigation fee in writing no later than October 1, in order to become effective on January 1, on any given year. |
