Executive Pay
January 7th, 2011 by Mike Vasilinda
Governor Rick Scott is paying substantially more money to some staff members than his predecessor. Three high ranking staffers are making one hundred fifty thousand dollars a year, while the Govenror is taking a salary of just a penny a year. 5 others are making more than one hundred thousand dollars. Scott says he believes the salaries are competitive.
“You know, I’m paying what I think are competitive salaries and if you look at what my goals are, the goal is look around the country and around the state to find the best people and pay them a competitive compensation,” Scott said.
The Governor still has dozens of hires to make, including most agency heads.
