Minutes note: Amendment 55
Provide funding for a 1% salary increase for all Group A employees in 2019. The intent is to provide Group A employees with a total salary increase in 2019 of 3%.

Minutes note: Amendment 55D
Add a footnote to the Wages Supplement Fund indicating the intent to implement a 3% wage increase for General City employees beginning in pay period 13 of 2019. The Department of Employee Relations will recommend a process to the Common Council for distributing the pay increases. Making the increase effective in pay period 13 is intended to make the pay increase budget neutral in 2019. However, implementing a 3% wage increase will require fully funding this increase for all 26 pay periods in 2020, requiring additional estimated costs of $2.45 million.
