Summary
After a brief executive session, commissioners approved Amendment No. 3 to extend the city manager employment agreement with Randy Frazer through Dec. 31, 2027, increase base salary by 3.84% for 2026–27 and raise the city's deferred compensation contribution from 8% to 10% of biweekly base pay.
Arkansas City commissioners approved Amendment No. 3 to the city manager employment agreement extending the contract term and adjusting compensation after a brief executive session on the personnel matter.
The commission recessed into executive session citing the statutory authority referenced in the transcript as "KSA 754319B1" to discuss a personal matter of non-elected personnel. After returning to open session, commissioners said the only substantive change was to the contract commencement date and then moved to approve Amendment No. 3 to the city manager employment agreement between the City of Arkansas City and Randy Frazer.
The amendment extends the agreement through Dec. 31, 2027, increases the annual base salary by 3.84% for calendar years 2026 and 2027, and raises the city's deferred compensation contribution rate from 8% to 10% of biweekly base salary. Commissioners voted to approve the amendment; the motion carried.
All other terms and conditions of the existing agreement remain in effect.
