Architects on the State Payroll
Using our transparency website, IllinoisOpenGov.org, I found that there were 20 architects on the state payroll in 2008. The Department of Public Health employed 16 of the architects, the Department of Corrections employed three, and the Department of Historic Preservation had one. The architects on the state payroll received average annual wages of $84,335 with the three departments spending a total of $1,686,706.75 on wages for the architects. The Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates that architects (except landscape and navel) in Illinois received average annual wages of $73,610 in 2008.
