By Uriah Kiser

The Board of County Supervisors for the first time Tuesday heard a proposal to give about 1,000 full-time employees a 4% raise. Another 627 part-time employees who work for the parks and rec department will also get a raise.

It’s going to cost about $5 million to carry out, and the pay raises would be phased in over two years.
