Background and Discussion:
Payroll correction for Tracey Thomas, EIN 136404

Due to an administrative error in processing step increases, Deputy Thomas did not receive their correct pay rate at the appropriate time. The employee became eligible for her step increase in February of 2025, and it should have been processed on March 8th, 2025. Consequently, Deputy Thomas was paid at the incorrect hourly rate for 9 pay periods. We are requesting a retroactive pay rate correction for the period of March 8th, 2025, through June 28th, 2025, to compensate for the missed step increase.

The total back pay is $3,953.72
