The Fond du Lac City Council meeting on September 17, 2025, focused on the implementation of a recent wage study and its communication to city employees. City officials discussed the need to clarify salary adjustments for employees, which have been somewhat vague since the study's results were shared earlier in the summer.
City Manager Moore expressed the intention to send personalized letters to employees detailing their new salary rates effective January 1. This move aims to eliminate any ambiguity regarding pay adjustments. Moore sought feedback from the council on this plan, emphasizing the importance of clear communication with staff.
The discussion also touched on the library board's upcoming meeting, where the wage study will be further examined. Moore indicated that the city would wait for the library board's decisions before proceeding with any related actions.
Council members did not raise any concerns regarding the proposed communication plan, allowing Moore to proceed with sending out the letters within the next few days. This initiative reflects the city's commitment to transparency and clarity in employee compensation.
