The council approved a job classification and pay plan update and a one-time $2,000 payment for full‑time employees; the one‑time payment excludes police department members.
The Decatur City Council approved Resolution 25252 to adopt a revised job classification and pay plan and approved Resolution 25253 to provide a one‑time $2,000 payment to full‑time city employees, excluding the police department.
Rochelle Stanley of the human resources department presented the classification and pay plan changes, which include reclassifying the vehicle manager supervisor to vehicle manager and adjustments to police department pay to address internal equity. Stanley said the changes support budgeted amounts and aim to align pay within affected departments.
Council members asked questions during the presentation; no vote tallies were recorded in the meeting transcript. City staff presented the pay plan changes as budgeted and requested formal council approval for implementation.
Resolution 25253 formalizes the $2,000 one‑time payment for full‑time employees with a stated exception for police department personnel; the transcript did not specify when payments would be disbursed or how they will be funded beyond the notation that the amounts are budgeted.
Staff indicated the pay plan adjustments and the one‑time payment are separate actions but both were presented for council approval at this meeting.
