Board of Aldermen approves pay increase for Clarkson Valley members
Summary
Bill No. 0587, adjusting compensation for Clarkson Valley aldermen, passed unanimously by those present on March 3 after discussion of inflation and workload; the roll call was 5–0 with one absence.
The Clarkson Valley Board of Aldermen on March 3 approved ordinance Bill No. 0587 to set compensation for members of the Board.
City Administrator/City Clerk Megan Eldridge read the bill twice as required. During discussion, aldermen referenced when current salaries were established, the effect of inflation and that Clarkson Valley’s elected officials undertake work that in other cities may be performed by staff. After a second reading, the roll call vote was: Yes — Brock MacDonald, Courtney Birkel, Lin Midyett, Tracy Nuelle and Jeff Schweig; Absent — Andrew Low. Mayor Sue McNamara declared the bill passed.
The ordinance formalizes the Board’s decision to change aldermen pay; the meeting record did not show dollar figures read aloud during the session or a separate implementation timeline beyond adoption. The clerk will include the adopted language in the City’s code updates and publish the effective date according to the ordinance text.
