Last week the Grundy Center City Council discussed posting for a vacant police officer position, and with future wages with pay scale upgrades.
The city finance committee had met to look at different wage scales from different cities and recommended salary levels for all positions in the police department.
Until the property tax levy is increased for fiscal year 2026, the city would use reserve funds to cover the salary increases.
The Grundy Center City Council then voted 3-2 to proceed with publishing for the vacant police officer position and to set the wages by position as listed to become effective immediately.
