    Section 25-11-45.  Notwithstanding Section 1-30-110(4), A county veterans' affairs office must be funded with monies appropriated by the General Assembly for that purpose and payable directly to the County Treasurer's Office by the State Treasurer. The General Assembly shall appropriate sufficient monies to pay the full salary and fringe benefits of the county veterans' affairs officer. Each county shall receive the same amount for the county veterans' affairs officer.  The salary must be comparable to the salary of a similarly situated state employee considering the skill required to effectively complete the duties of the job.
