County Council Special Call Meeting 2/3/23 (Recovered recording)

The Vigo County Council held a special call meeting on February 3, 2023, primarily focused on reviewing and discussing the results of a comprehensive compensation study conducted by Baker Tilly. The study assessed county job classifications, pay plans, and market competitiveness, proposing new pay structures for general, public safety, and sheriff positions. Various implementation options were presented, including adjustments to bring employee salaries to minimum pay ranges, a 2% across-the-board increase, and moving employees toward market midpoints, with associated budgetary impacts discussed. The council considered the need for ongoing market data updates and an appeal process for job re-evaluations. The meeting emphasized the importance of aligning pay plans with market data while maintaining fiscal sustainability, with plans to incorporate these changes into the upcoming budget and continued collaboration with Baker Tilly for implementation and future adjustments.
