Executive Summary: Fremont Municipal Code Section 2.05.060 (the “Municipal Code”) establishes the salaries of the Councilmembers and Mayor and the process for reviewing and implementing compensation increases.
“Compensation increases shall be reviewed during each budget cycle and increases shall be considered commensurate with the Consumer Price Index – All Urban Consumers, San Francisco-Oakland-Hayward in an amount not to exceed 4%. Any increase to the Councilmembers’ salaries shall become effective only upon commencement of a new Council term of office following adoption of an ordinance authorizing the increase. Any increase to the Mayor’s additional compensation (the amount that exceeds the Councilmembers’ salary amount) shall become effective as set forth in the ordinance adopting the increase.”
The ordinance was introduced by the City Council at its April 9, 2024 meeting. The ordinance is now before the Council for adoption.
