pay raise

City employees are getting pay raises of $1.50 per hour after a vote Tuesday by the Cheyenne City Council.

After weeks of negotiations, Cheyenne Firefighters and the City have agreed to a one year contract with a two percent base pay increase.

The amended version would give the five statewide elected officials raises of $8,000 each.

In addition, Burke says it's unclear who is responsible for paying for the purchase, installation and maintenance of audio and visual equipment in courtrooms.

"Where are the priorities of our local elected officials these days." Well, it seems that the priorities lie in their wallets instead of on our streets.
