August 14, 2017 -- From the City manager's new basic salary of $342,780 to others in upper echelons of staff at City Hall, salaries are rising modestly for the 2017-2018 fiscal year as many jobs continue trending well into six figures, or getting close.

The new pay pacts between the council and managers, as well as firefighters, show modest increases of about the rate of inflation, City officials said.

In all, the numerous memorandums of understanding (MOU) approved by the council August 8 will cost the City approximately $2,842,088, officials said.

After City Manager Rick Cole, the two City officials earning the highest basic pay are the police and fire chiefs, with each earning up to $314,136 in 2017-2018, under the MOUs.
