The City Council voted 6-0 Monday night to approve bonuses for city employees who worked during the pandemic, with the money coming from federal COVID-19 relief funds.
Some city councilors on Monday decided a special committee they appointed to advise them on how to spend American Rescue Plan Act funds should meet to discuss employee bonuses before the council takes a vote to approve them.
The money would be used for a variety of purposes but a large allotment would improve and expand the North Street Recreation Area and the Pine Ridge Recreation Area.
