Commission staff says council pay adjusted retroactively after HUD AMI update
Summary
Staff told the commission the pay increase to 45% of area median income was applied retroactively to April 1 after HUD posted updated AMI data late; retroactivity means council members received increased pay beginning April 1.
Staff told the Salary Commission that last year's resolution that increased council pay to 45% of area median income was applied retroactively once HUD published updated AMI figures.
"So the council members all got, a raise as of April April 1," said the Staff member summarizing implementation. Staff explained HUD did not post AMI on the usual schedule this year, delaying the commission's ability to apply the new pay scale until the numbers were available.
Commission members asked for clarity about timing and noted they have not yet had a full 12 months of post-change data; several members said they prefer to analyze at least a full year before considering further adjustments.
