The City Manager authorized an across the board City staff 3.2% Cost of Living
Adjustment (COLA), effective November 6th, 2023 and would like to afford himself the
same adjustment. There are many economic indicators that are national economy

of the dollar. One of the most recognizable indicators is the increase in seniors
benefits from the Social Security Administration (SSA). This year the SSA is providing a
COLA of 3.2%.
Attached is a proposed addendum to the Interim City Manager's current Employment
Contract that would provide a COLA increase. The City Manager's current salary is
$180,000; therefore, the 3.2% increase would result in an updated salary of $185,760.
It’s understood that his role as Interim City Manager is temporary; therefore, the
stated salary per the attached contract is $160,000 as Public Works Director would also
be increased by the COLA of 3.2% or $165,120.
