Council unanimously approves pay raise for city treasurer to $30.76 an hour
The city council voted unanimously to raise the city treasurer’s hourly pay to $30.76, effective at the start of the next pay period. The motion passed 6-0.

The item was placed on the agenda at the request of members referenced as Aldermen (agenda notation). Speaker 5, who said they could not attend an earlier meeting when this was discussed, told the council the treasurer was doing a "phenomenal job," had helped "clean up the mess that was left behind," and deserved parity with a counterpart named Sarah. "When you have good people, I think they should be taken care of," Speaker 5 said.

Meeting staff clarified that minutes of prior meetings record actions and not verbatim public statements and that, if approved, the wage change would begin with the next pay period. The motion to increase the treasurer’s wage was made on the floor, seconded, and carried on a roll call vote of six in favor, none opposed.

The transcript includes an earlier verbal reference to "$3.76 an hour" when the item was introduced; council discussion and the subsequent motion identify the intended rate as $30.76 per hour. The council did not make the raise retroactive during the meeting.
