Shakopee City Council

FROM:William H. Reynolds, City Administrator
TO:Mayor and City Council
Subject:
Pay adjustment for City Administrator
Policy/Action Requested:
Approval of a 7% pay increase for the City Administrator backdated to January 1, 2019.
Recommendation:
Approval.
Discussion:

Following Council's annual Performance Review of the City Administrator on April 16, 2019, Council directed staff to submit a 7% pay increase for their approval. The current 2019 salary for the City Administrator is $157,575. A 7% increase would adjust the salary to $168,605 a year.

 

The Minnesota State Legislature has restricted the amount that a City Administrator/Manager may make in yearly salary. For 2019 that limit is $175,621.

Budget Impact:
The increase to the administrative budget would be $11,030 a year which can be addressed by the current budget.
