Council took up three addenda related to employee compensation and ratified negotiated amendments reached with bargaining units.
The manager explained the first two addenda allocate a 1% one‑time, non‑pensionable pay supplement for PBA lieutenants and for PBA police officers/detectives/sergeants/corrections officers, consistent with union ratification and council directive. Addendum three provides a 0.5% one‑time COLA for non‑bargaining general employees for the current budget year.
Each addendum was moved, seconded and passed by roll call. The manager said the PBA had voted to proceed and requested an expedited agenda placement so payments could be made in early August.
