Mr. Kratovil,

The County received your supplemental request on August 5, 2025 for the
total amount paid to each current and former employee during 2024.
Attached please find the responsive document.

In addition, while reviewing the documents that had been previously
provided to you, it became apparent that there was an error in the
longevity rate that was provided for eight employees. A revised
spreadsheet for those employees is also attached to this email.

Thank you for your patience regarding this request. Your request is now
closed.

Robin La Bue, Esq.

Subject: Re: FW: [EXTERNAL] OPRA request - 2024 Pay For Each County
Employee

Dear Robin La Bue,

I have had the chance to review your response to my OPRA request for
"records sufficient to show the name and 2024 total pay for each current
or former county employee."  The records provided include columns "BASE"
"LONG" and "XREG" - it's unclear what XREG is but it appears to be a
combination of the base salary and longevity pay, which would be
represented by the two prior columns.  However, I don't see information to
reflect other forms of pay such as overtime pay.  Thus, I don't believe
that my request has been fulfilled.

Can you please provide a record that is sufficient to show the name and
2024 total pay for each current or former county employee?  Thank you.

Yours sincerely,

Charlie Kratovil
