Summary

At an Elberfeld meeting a committee member proposed raises for staffers Becky and Jason, asked that Jason’s raise be retroactive to July 1, and the body approved the motion in a voice vote.

A committee member proposed raises for two staff members, saying the increases are warranted by extra duties taken on during a colleague’s illness. The member noted that Jason "had went above and beyond all expectations as far as covering for Venice and still managing to to not only hold his own, but make progress with some taps and figuring out ways to get things done," and asked that Jason’s raise be made retroactive to July 1 when Dennis was off.

A motion to approve the raises was made and seconded; the body proceeded to a voice vote. "All in favor. Aye. Motion carried," the committee member said, and the motion was recorded as carried. A subsequent motion was announced near the end of the transcript but its subject was not specified in the available segments.

The meeting discussion referenced the municipality’s salary ordinance as a constraint on any increases. The transcript does not specify the exact raise amounts, who formally seconded the motion by name, or whether the vote was recorded in a roll-call tally.
