A salary supplement shall not be required as a condition for creating or maintaining a position in the region. A county or municipality that might choose to provide supplemental pay to DPRS employees would incur an increase in expenditures, but it is not anticipated a unit of local government would incur this additional expense unless there are sufficient funds available.
