Salaries may be paid monthly or quarterly as prescribed by ordinance. The compensation of supervisors, when employed as roadmasters, laborers, secretary, treasurer, assistant secretary, assistant treasurer or in any employee capacity not otherwise prohibited by this chapter or any applicable law, shall be determined by the Board of Auditors, at an hourly, daily, weekly, semimonthly or monthly basis, which shall be comparable to compensation paid in the locality for similar services. All other available compensation as permitted by law shall be set forth by ordinance.
