Title
Recommendation for 2026 Adjustment to the Monthly Vehicle Allowance for Mayor
Body
Whereas, pursuant to Article IV of the City Council Policy for Salaries of Department Directors and Mayor, and Per Diem Fees for City Boards and Commissions and authorized by resolution number 2017-0279, the Human Resource Technical Review Committee (HRTRC) has met to discuss recommendations concerning the Mayor's fringe benefits for 2026; and
Whereas, it was the consensus of the HRTRC that the recommended increase in the Mayor's vehicle allowance addresses the significant rise in vehicle-related costs since the last adjustment in 2012.
Resolved, that City Council accepts the recommendation of the HRTRC that the Mayor’s vehicle allowance be increased from $550 per month to $850 per month, effective the first pay period in 2026 and each year thereafter.
