Fuquay Varina adopts FY26 pay-grade schedule; 14 new positions added, total FTEs rise to 397
Summary
The board approved a revised pay-grade and position classification schedule for fiscal year 2026 based on a townwide pay study. The FY26 budget funds 14 new positions (12 general fund, 2 enterprise), bringing the town workforce to 397 full-time equivalents.
The Fuquay Varina Board on June 2 adopted a revised pay-grade and position classification schedule for fiscal year 2026. Human resources director Wendy Moody said the schedule was updated following a townwide pay and classification study performed by the Piedmont Triad Regional Council.
Moody told the board that the FY26 budget includes funding for 14 new positions — 12 in the general fund and two in the enterprise fund — and that adopting the new pay-grade schedule will bring the town’s authorized FTE count to 397. “Included in the fiscal year 26 budget was 14 new positions, 12 were with the general fund and 2 the enterprise. So that will bring us up to 397 FTEs for fiscal year 26,” Moody said.
Moody said classification and pay-schedule updates are part of establishing a legal and consistent compensation system and that funding for the positions is included in the adopted budget. The board approved the pay grade and position classification schedule as presented; the action implements the town’s updated compensation structure and authorizes the newly funded positions to proceed to recruitment and onboarding per department plans.
