The Coppell City Council approved an amended employment contract for City Manager Mike Land that increases his base salary by 5% and extends his contract through 2029.
Mayor Pro Tem Jim Walker moved to approve the amendment, which the council said includes corresponding adjustments to deferred compensation. The motion was seconded by Council Member Carroll and passed on a roll-call vote with Councilmembers Walker, Carroll, Neville's, Premkumar and Matthew voting yes and none opposed.
