Clearlake council approves 3% COLA for management employees
The Clearlake City Council on July 6 approved a 3% cost-of-living increase for management employees, consistent with other bargaining agreements for the year.

Director Wells reviewed section 6-2.1 of the management classification and benefit plan, which ties annual salary adjustments to the March-to-March consumer price index (CPI), equity adjustments and the city's financial condition. Staff recommended a 3% increase for management employees rather than a full 5% CPI-based adjustment, citing parity with other bargaining units.

Councilmember Slotin moved approval, Councilmember Kramer seconded, and the motion passed unanimously.

The council did not attach implementation conditions beyond the standard payroll process; staff said adjustments are effective July 1 consistent with the policy.
