East Windsor Township municipal employees – except police officers – will receive salary increases that average 1.8-percent over the course of four years, under a salary ordinance that was given final approval by Township Council.
The salary ordinance is a companion to the four-year contract between Township Council and the Communications Workers of America Local 1032 members. It covers 2016 through 2019. Police officers are not represented by the Communications Workers of America union.
Under the newly adopted salary ordinance, the salary increase for 2016, which is retroactive, is 1.5 percent. For 2017, it is 1.75 percent. It is 2 percent for 2018 and 2 percent for 2019.
For example, a clerk typist 1 will earn between $31,062 and $38,915 for 2016. By the final year of the salary ordinance, the salary range is $32,882 to $41,196.
The Senior Citizen Program Coordinator will earn between $50,018 and $62,663 for 2016, and between $52,950 and $66,363 in the last year of the salary ordinance.
The Building Inspector, the Public Health Investigator and the Zoning Officer/Commercial Maintenance Inspector/Fire Inspector will have a salary range that is between $55,068 and $68,993 in 2016. It the final year, the salary range is $58,295 to $72,973.
