Wages paid out to staff by the City of Kelowna increased by four per cent in 2011, over levels paid the previous year. Figures were released Thursday as part of the city's 2011 Annual Report. The four per cent increase equates to an additional $2.3M in wages. The report, which council will review Monday, shows the number of staff
earning more than $75,000 a year increased by 30 in 2011. Special Projects Manager, Jackie Dueck, who prepared the report, says
the reason was the number of CUPE employees who earned more than
$75,000 increased by 28 over 2010. Dueck says the number of staff is impacted by contract increases which
affect those positions that were previously just under the $75,000
threshold. "The number of staff is also impacted by the amount of overtime worked
in 2011 and a contract increase for 2010 that was paid in 2011," says
Dueck in her report. In all, 253 staff members on the City of Kelowna payroll pull in a wage
of more than $75,000. That includes 99 management employees, 93
firefighters and 61 CUPE employees. Sixty-one employees earn a pay cheque of $100,000 or more. City Manager Ron Mattiussi is the top wage earner, pulling in $250,000 a year.
