Town to send notice to contracted water operator; council considers pay raises tied to certification
Summary
Council discussed issuing notice to the contracted certified operator and agreed to a salary-ordinance amendment proposing $1/hour raises for two staff and $2/hour per certification for the lead operator; members praised staff performance.
Council reviewed the contract and transition plan for the town's certified water operator. Council discussed sending a 30-day termination notice to the contracted operator, Brett, to allow a transition to in-house certified staff. A council member said, "He has full confidence in Connor, and he will be available to him anytime in the future," noting a planned notice at the end of July for a transition by the end of August.
Along with the operator transition, staff requested a salary-ordinance amendment to grant $1/hour raises to two workers (Austin and Joe) and a $2/hour raise to Connor tied to each certification he completes. Council members voiced support for the team and moved to approve the ordinance amendment; a motion to approve the transition letter and the pay adjustments was made and seconded during the meeting.
