Urbana Park District board approves 2.5% base pay increase and merit program
Summary
The board unanimously adopted Resolution 2026-02 on April 14, approving FY2026–27 compensation actions that include a 2.5% base salary increase, market-alignment adjustments, step progressions and recommended merit bonuses.
The Urbana Park District board unanimously approved Resolution 2026-02 at its April 14 meeting, adopting the district’s fiscal-year 2026–27 compensation plan.
A commissioner moved to approve the resolution described in the meeting packet: a base pay increase of 2.5 percent, additional market-alignment adjustments and step progressions for eligible positions, and the district’s recommended merit-bonus framework. The motion was seconded and passed by roll-call vote with no recorded dissent.
Board members framed the action as the district’s routine annual compensation update aligned to the budget and pay-policy considerations. No amendments were offered during the meeting. The resolution takes effect immediately as adopted; implementation details and merit bonus payments will follow standard payroll scheduling and the district’s personnel policies.
The board handled the compensation measure separately from governance and capital items discussed at the meeting.
