2013 Salaries - City, County, and Township Employees Over $100,000 and Elected Officials

With budget time soon upon us, I began wondering what salaries are being given out.  I was familiar with the huge hike that those in the Mayor's Office took last year, but didn't have any idea what others made.

To gather the salary information, I visited the State's Gateway information website and downloaded the 2013 salaries for all City, County, and Township employees.  The only ones I could not find on the site were the Constables.

Here are the salaries of those making over $100,000 that year, as well as the salary of each elected official, with the exception of the Constables.

City of Indianapolis

There are 79 City employees who made over $100,000, including Mayor Greg Ballard, who was compensated with $102,620.10.  Public Safety folks take home very nice paychecks.  A couple stood out, which I emphasized in red, as they seemed to make a higher salary than their superiors.  I think it might be interesting if the press asked questions about IMPD overtime again.

(The salary of Vernon Brown is the combined figure for his IFD duties and his Council duties)

Had Enough Indy? said...

I posted some of those Friday. Over 300 H&H employees got over $100K in 2013 - way too many to list.

How is it possible that some of these employees make more than the advertised and approved salary that was set in the budget? Wayne Township

That's a good question Anon 10:11. My only guess is overtime pay.
