Salary hearing corrects public works assistant director increase to 6.8%

The South Weber City Council opened a public hearing on proposed increases to executive municipal salaries and were told one figure in the packet needed correction.

A staff member explained the public-works assistant director line in the packet shows a 3.4% increase but that number did not include an adjustment to reflect FLSA-exempt status; the correct percentage is 6.8%. The staff member said that the higher figure will require a slight adjustment to the budget but called it “not a major adjustment.” Council members asked clarifying questions and the hearing closed without public opposition.

No formal salary vote was recorded as part of this hearing; the item was opened, clarified and closed so the council could consider the corrected figures in future budget steps.
