Lindsay Mann, CEO of public-owned Kaweah Delta Health Care District in Visalia, Calif., solidified his position as the county's highest-paid public employee as the board awarded him an $80,000 raise, according to a Visalia Times-Delta report.
Mr. Mann's compensation increased to more than $850,000. The $80,000 raise included a $30,000 raise to his base salary and an incentive bonus of $50,000, according to the report.
The Kaweah Delta board said it approved Mr. Mann's raise because he "could go to work in another state or facility and do much better," according to the report. Mr. Mann declined a raise in 2012 due to budget constraints at the hospital.
