Beresford council adopts 2025 employee wage resolution, sets department head increases
Summary
The council approved Resolution 2025 on employee wages, including department head percentage increases for 2025; one public‑safety salary was held for a later decision.
The Beresford City Council approved its 2025 employee wage resolution after adding department head salary proposals to the motion.
Councilors adopted Resolution 2025 (employee wages) and included department head increases proposed by the personnel committee. The resolution lists the following department head percentage increases: Mike Hanson 3%, Jerry Zemath 3%, Lane Johnson 4%, Austin Hansen 3%, Jane Norling 3%, Jeff Huddleback 5% and Ben Reilly 3%. The council said it will leave one public safety position’s pay unchanged in the resolution until the Public Safety Commission completes its review.
Councilors discussed timing and whether to wait for additional department‑head figures; staff said the substitute motion on the table incorporated the department head amounts and that final edits could be made and signed after the meeting if necessary. The substitute motion carried.
Ending: The council directed staff to update the resolution paperwork to reflect the approved department head increases and to bring any remaining public safety salary decisions back when the commission finalizes its recommendation.
