Long-time meter reader asks council to reconsider denied raise
Summary
Joshua Guelker, who has read Burton meters monthly for more than a decade, appealed to the council to revisit a denied pay raise, saying he uses his own vehicle and pays fuel and insurance costs.
Joshua Guelker, who told the council he has read Burton meters monthly since 2019 and has done meter work for the town for more than 10 years, asked the council to reconsider a pay raise that was denied at the previous meeting.
Guelker said he uses his own side‑by‑side vehicle and purchases his own gasoline and has added insurance to cover possible errors. “He respectfully asked council to reconsider the raise denied at last month’s meeting,” the minutes record. Council did not take an immediate vote or reverse the prior action during the April 8 meeting; the request was heard during the public‑comment portion of the agenda and will remain a matter for council follow-up or future agenda placement if requested.
