Beginning January 1, 2023, the bill increases the salary of newly
elected or reelected category II county coroners to match the salary of category II county treasurers. The bill also allows a category II county coroner position to be a part-time position, if desired by a coroner.
The bill allows category III and category IV county coroners to
work full-time if full-time work is agreed upon in consultation with the
county commissioners. For a category III or category IV county that has a full-time county coroner only, the bill increases the salary of a newly elected or reelected county coroner to match the salary of the county treasurer.
