Adjusts salary schedules for elected county officials in West Virginia.

West Virginia HB5171 amends the salary schedules for elected county officials, including county commissioners and other elected officials. The bill sets specific salary amounts for different classes of counties and positions, effective from July 1, 2014, July 1, 2022, and July 1, 2026. It requires the State Auditor to certify that the county's fiscal condition allows for the salary increases before they can be paid. If certification is not provided, salaries will remain at their previous levels.
