The new county attorney's salary and compensation were discussed by the board of commissioners during last week's work session. The newly appointed attorney, Lynn Frey, was hired on Feb. 3 and started work on Feb. 6 with a proposed salary of the $85,000. During the discussion, the commissioners came to the conclusion that as a salaried employee and not a contract employee, Frey's compensation did not need to be voted on by the commission.
