Arizona Republic:  “Epic budget cuts didn’t stop hundreds of Maricopa County employees from receiving pay raises over the past year.  According to an Arizona Republic analysis of payroll data, about 500 employees were paid more money this fiscal year compared with last, even as the Board of Supervisors had suspended pay hikes because of the sour economy.”
