City Manager Kyle Lovell said raises were determined by combining performance ratings—Exceptional, Proficient, Needs Improvement, Unacceptable—and market research. Two department chiefs rated "Exceptional" received 11% and 12% increases; other tiers received roughly 7%, 4%, or none.
Lovell said he used daily observations and comparable salaries from nearby municipalities to balance merit and market pressures, and Council agreed an executive session was unnecessary to review individual evaluations.
