Website reveals Las Vegas salaries of public employees
Ever wonder how much of your tax money goes to fund salaries in Clark County?
Ever wonder exactly how much individual public employees make?
In an effort to show they have nothing to hide, The Nevada Policy Research Institute has launched the website TransparentNevada.com that shows salaries of counties in Nevada.
In Las Vegas (aka Clark County), it shows Director of Aviation Randall Walker draws the top salary of $222,195.20 with $35,746.85 in benefits. Cost to taxpayers? $266,562.85. No overtime, though. (We don't know how up to date the site is, because Walker, who oversaw McCarran International Airport, resigned in 2006.)
For OJ Simpson's Second Trial of the Century, a bailiff you might see on TV earns about $25k.
In all, 8,106 employees' salaries are listed for Clark County.
In addition to salaries, the website also shows lobbying costs.
