Impact analysis
This means more money in the pockets of city employees, but it also adds to the city's payroll costs—so taxpayers may feel it down the line.
City workers and Constable's Office staff get bigger paychecks—and local businesses might see a little extra spending from them.
No groups are directly harmed, but taxpayers may bear the cost if the city adjusts its budget to cover the raises.
