PERRY TOWNSHIP Trustees granted 2 percent wage increases to police and road department employees Monday.
In addition, employees were granted a one-time only 1 percent stipend based on last year’s wages for dealing with COVID-19.
Trustee Chair Steve Bailey described the wage hikes as cost of living and merit raises for employees, saying trustees were “trying to make up for years they didn’t get raises.”
The raises will cost an additional $7,723 for the year and the stipends will cost an additional $3,300 for the year.
Employees affected include three road department employees, four full-time police officers and five part-time police officers.

SALEM City council members have been asked to attend the next Salem Utilities Commission meeting at 4 p.m. Thursday regarding sewer rates.
City Utilities Superintendent Don Weingart issued the invite when council met Tuesday night, saying the agenda includes rate study findings regarding the city sewer rates, which haven’t been increased since 1995.
The commission has been talking about raising the sewer rates, but by law, city council has final say on any rate hikes for sanitary sewer. The commission has control over the water rates.
Weingart explained that it’s time to move into Phase 3 of the wastewater treatment plant improvements and the price tag for that project is upwards of $11 million. He said money will have to be borrowed and told council members the commission will be recommending a sanitary sewer rate hike, which council will have to act upon.
