Description
The Treasurer of Mesa County fixed certain salaries in 1969 and 1970 for his employees for the calendar years of 1970 and 1971. The Board of County Commissioners of Mesa County (hereinafter referred to as the Board) refused to approve any of these salaries either year and set different salaries which ranged from five to fifteen dollars per month less than those fixed by the Treasurer. The Treasurer and his employees brought suit, requesting a writ of mandamus requiring the Board to approve the salaries fixed by the Treasurer and also seeking a declaratory judgment interpreting the relative rights and duties of the Treasurer and the Board under the provisions of C.R.S. 1963, 56-2-10. The Board filed its answer, and as one of its defenses asked that the suit be dismissed for failure to state a claim upon which relief could be granted. The Treasurer and his employees subsequently filed a motion for summary judgment. The trial court dismissed the complaint, holding that the Board had the exclusive power to determine the salaries of the Treasurers employees.
