Each person counts once per fiscal year, agency and county (multiple positions combined, shown as “+ more”). “Paid” is the total paid during the fiscal year, including overtime and other pay; it is lower than the base rate for anyone who started, left or worked part time. “Base pay” is the rate on record.
