The Finance and Human Resource Committee voted to recommend 2026 market and merit adjustments to the Village Board of Trustees, with changes to take effect on Jan. 19, 2026, and to forward several proposed job reclassifications for board consideration.
Committee action followed a closed-session review of employment, promotion, compensation and performance-evaluation data. "I move to recommend approval of the 2026 market and merit adjustments to the Village Board of Trustees as presented and starting on 01/19/2026," a committee member said after the meeting returned to open session; the motion was seconded and carried on an aye voice vote.
The committee also voted to recommend specific reclassifications: public works maintainer to public works operator; public works operator to public works senior operator; and utility maintainer to utility operator. The committee member who moved the reclassification recommendation made clear the changes were to be forwarded to the Village Board for final approval.
No vote tallies by individual name were recorded in the public transcript; the meeting recorded the motions and stated each passed on an aye voice vote. The chair noted these recommendations will be transmitted to the Village Board of Trustees for final action.
Next steps: the Village Board of Trustees will consider the committee’s recommendations; effective dates and any budget implementation details will be set by the board if it approves the measures.
