The Mansfield City Council met in special session on Tuesday morning, November 26 at 10 a.m. in order to amend the 2025 budget.
At the regular meeting held last Thursday evening, city employees as well as the mayor and recorder/treasurer were given 3% raises. Following Tuesday’s special meeting Mayor Buddy Black stated “No raises yet for any city employees. We will re-evaluate at the end of the first quarter for city employees due to upcoming expenses repairing the sewer infiltration repairs that must be made.”
Black also noted that the pay raise for retired elected officials will be revisited after the first quarter.
All other raises, including that of the fire chief and the department volunteers remain unchanged.
