Council approves 2.5% increase and related amendments to city manager employment contract
Summary
After a personnel-subcommittee review, the Council voted 5-0 to amend the city manager’s employment agreement to provide a 2.5% salary increase (to align with July cost-of-living adjustments), an increase in vacation accumulation limits, and $500 per month deferred compensation.
The City Council approved a first amendment to the city manager’s employment agreement following a personnel-subcommittee review. The subcommittee (mayor and mayor pro tem) recommended a 2.5% increase in the city manager’s salary to align with the July cost-of-living adjustment and annual review. The amendment also updated vacation-accumulation limits and continued a $500-per-month deferred-compensation contribution.
Mayor pro tem and personnel-committee members described the increase as consistent with the city’s overall employee cost-of-living adjustment and recommended the amendment following a first-year performance review. The council motion to adopt the amendment passed on a recorded vote of 5–0.
City Manager Stone James thanked the council, noting the transition and stated appreciation for the opportunity to continue in the role. The amended salary totals and precise effective dates will be reflected in the executed contract amendment.
