Sec. 13-3.
Compensation of public administrator.
(a) In counties having a population in excess of 1,000,000
the public administrator shall pay all the fees collected by the office into
the county treasury. Each year, the county board shall appropriate an amount
to be paid to the public administrator as compensation for the public
administrator's performance of his or her duties and such compensation shall be
paid at a minimum level of $20,000 annually. That amount shall be paid

county board in such counties shall fix the amount for the public
administrator's compensation and necessary clerk hire,
assistants,
and office expense in the annual county budget and appropriation ordinances,
which shall be paid from the
county treasury. In such counties all fees of the office of public
administrator are subject to audit the same as are fees of other county
officers.

less the public administrator may receive all the fees
of his office and shall bear the expenses connected with
