Come July 1, huge chunks of city employees at the bottom of the pay scale will get upgrades to their salaries. Employees making minimum wage will be bumped up to $11 an hour. Employees in the next lowest pay region will go up to $15 an hour. Virginia’s minimum wage was raised to $9.50 as of May 1, 2021.
Interim City Manager Kenneth Miller said in an informational meeting that his goal is to have all city employees at $15 an hour by the end of the 2022-2023 fiscal year.
“Are we going to halt poverty with that, no, but we will impact people’s lives,” Miller said.
