Prosser to vote tonight on employee 2% raise

By the Herald staff

PROSSER -- The Prosser City Council will vote tonight on an ordinance giving nonunion employees a 2 percent cost of living wage increase.

Union employees, according to their contracts, also will receive a 2 percent increase. If the council approves the increase for nonunion employees it would go into effect Jan. 1.

About 80 percent of Prosser's city employees belong to unions, said City Administrator Charlie Bush. The city is renegotiating union contracts with several groups of workers, Bush added.
