Grievance Committee Approves Bigger Pay Raise for Lubbock Tax Assessor

The Lubbock County Tax Assessor will be getting a bigger pay raise than the one Lubbock County Commissioners approved two weeks ago.

At that time, commissioners approved a 5.36% pay raise for themselves, the district and county clerks and tax assessor. That will bring all those annual salaries from $53,000 to $55,840, effective October 1, 2007.

Tax Assessor Barbara Brooks was the only one who filed a grievance, saying she should get more money because of her workload.

Tuesday, a citizen's grievance committee agreed unanimously to increase Brooks' salary from $53,000 to $60,000.
