Question: Will our city council aides receive the 5% general employee pay bump? Please include what Council aides are currently compensated at a competitive rate to surrounding jurisdictions? Can you breakdown what the fiscal impact would be to provide Council aides with the same 2% general scale increase in FY24? (Councilwoman Bagley)
Response: The Department of Human Resources is currently reviewing Council Aides’ compensation in comparison to surrounding jurisdictions and expects to complete the analysis later this month. The cost to increase Council Aides’ salaries by 2% would be approximately $5,300 in FY 2024.
