Commissioner Blake stated, "One of my pet peeves over the last few years has been this problem of the annual reviews with all the employees and the timeliness or lack of timeliness." Commissioner Blake further said "I would like to think that we can do a better job starting today, on that issue. " Mayor Partyka stated that salaries are a pnonty, and they have to be discussed on a timely fashion. Mayor Partyka further stated, "If this subject is up for discussion in October it should be to this Commission at least a month before the salary is due. It's a burden on any employee to wait six (6) months to see if they get a salary or not. That is just good business practice. So, I urge the City Manager for any future salary increases including his own, that this come up at least one (1) month - prior to when it supposed to be effective." Commissioner Blake agreed and stated, "Hopefully, you are not just talking about the Clerk, or the Manager, but for every employee that we have."
