Clayton council adopts pay schedule amendment, reappoints parks member and authorizes acting city manager
Summary
Council declared an emergency and adopted an ordinance changing job categories and pay schedules (removing a car allowance for the interim city manager), reappointed Tracy Barnes to the Parks Advisory Commission, and authorized the acting city manager to serve as Director of Development.
The Clayton City Council approved multiple administrative items during its meeting following the public hearing on Northwood Estates.
Ordinance 92524, which amends job categories and pay schedules and removes a car allowance for the interim city manager, was declared an emergency and adopted by roll‑call vote. The roll call recorded Farmer and Henning opposed and Merkel, Kelly, Bachman and Stevens in favor. Council members said the emergency declaration and the ordinance were needed to align compensation and interim arrangements while the city fills or reorganizes staffing.
Council also adopted Resolution RO9 25 71 to reappoint Tracy Barnes to the Parks Advisory Commission by voice vote. Shortly thereafter the council adopted Resolution RO9 25 72, authorizing the acting city manager to perform the duties of Director of Development pursuant to the city charter; roll call recorded one dissent.
These actions were taken amid other routine business and department reports; Chief Hamlin (serving as interim manager in the manager's absence) reported on public events, an 8‑inch county waterline extension tied to a Quick Trip project in the JED District, and staffing plans for the police department (noting hires and a staffing goal).
