Charlotte City Council · City Council Business Meeting on 2026-05-11 4:00 PM - May 11, 2026 · 11 May 2026 meeting

I know I'm glad to be here just to let you all hear what I got on my mind.

So the $25 now, I'd like to appreciate you all for that.

We finally got there.

We tried to get there last year, but this year that's good.

We got workers coming in, making more than any job I know of starting, so I think that's great for the guys coming through the door.

For the people that was here, we saw that 10% come out for the police.

We were like, all right.

Saw the 7% come out for the fire.

All right.

And saw that 4% come out for us.

Heads was down.

We just didn't think it was enough not to represent us in the work that we was doing.

I mean, we worked for the past year.

We like to get rewarded just as well as anybody else.

We want to be respected as much as you guys say we are.

And just looking at those guys getting more than us, everybody getting more than us, we don't feel that respect.

And then we got to fight for it on top of that.

So it's not just it's 4%, but then we got to fight for it by proving to a manager that might not like us that, hey, I deserve that other percent on top of that.

So, I mean, it's tough for us.

We're getting maybe 4%.
