Thereafter, salary <br />increases will match SLPMA’s salary increases of 4% effective July 1, 2024, 4% effective July 1, <br />2025, and 3% effective July 1, 2026. The salary schedules are attached to the proposed <br />amendment and are presented in accordance with California Code of Regulations Section 570.5. <br />Retirement <br />Chief Pridgen agrees to begin paying an employee cost share towards the City ’s/employer’s <br />CalPERS contribution, which will match SLPMA ’s cost share agreement.
