The Trenton Finance Committee voted Wednesday evening to recommend to the Trenton City Council raises in pay for employees.
City Clerk Cindy Simpson reports the committee is recommending a 50 cent per hour raise for utility employees as well as for pay-per-call firefighters and reserve police officers. She said the committee also recommended departments taking on extra duties due to job reduction receive a 25% increase in the savings of the salaries.
Simpson noted department heads would split the increase amongst their employees.
