Council raises city manager’s salary to $140,000 after annual review
Summary
Following an executive‑session evaluation, the council approved increasing the city manager’s annual salary from $130,000 to $140,000 and encumbered a prorated amount for the fiscal year; the manager thanked council and pledged continued focus on long‑term organization building.
After an executive‑session performance review, the council voted on June 16 to increase the City Manager’s annual salary from $130,000 to $140,000 and to encumber $3,178.27 from the general ledger for a prorated FY portion of back pay. The motion was moved by Councilor Mote and seconded; the council approved the increase.
Why it matters: The raise reflects the council’s evaluation of the city manager’s performance and preserves continuity in municipal leadership during an active period of capital projects, staffing changes and planning efforts.
Manager remarks: The City Manager thanked the council for the vote of confidence, described the role as long‑term community work and said staff and council may discuss his performance with reporters or others as they see fit; he emphasized commitment to continuing the projects underway.
Next steps: The payroll adjustment will be processed per city finance procedures and the manager will continue to lead implementation of the council’s priorities.
