City Leaders Get Pay Hike Amid Debate | Anchorage News

Published 1 week, 1 day ago
Description

Juneau’s Assembly just approved juicy 3% raises plus $2K bonuses for the city manager and attorney — bumping their pay to over $243K and $214K respectively, retroactive to July 13. The move aims to align their salaries with non-union staff, but it sparked debate: one council member called the pay already excessive, while supporters defended the consistent, rule-based compensation framework. The vote? Six to one. And yes — some cops made more last year thanks to overtime.
