Council moves to update operator contract and approve pay adjustments tied to certifications
Summary
The council approved issuing a 30-day notice to the current certified water operator and discussed salary-ordinance amendments that would raise pay for utility staff tied to certifications: $1/hr for two staff and $2/hr per certificate for the lead operator.
The council discussed transition plans for the town's certified water operator. Staff said Brett, the current operator, requires a 30-day notice to terminate and has agreed to remain through the end of August to overlap with Connor; the council approved issuing the notice consistent with that timeline.
Related to personnel, staff proposed salary-ordinance amendments to reflect certifications: a $1/hour raise for Austin and Joe and a $2/hour raise for Connor per certification. A council member moved to approve the changes, praising the utilities team for improved operations and continuity; the motion was seconded and advanced without recorded opposition that night.
