Date: June 8, 2021

Re: Consideration of the Consumer Price Index (CPI-W) adjustment and MeritIncrease for the FY21-22 Budget

Attached isa copy of the CPI history chart dating back to 1984. The Town has traditionallyutilized the CPI index as of December 31 for the upcoming fiscal year. This chart showsthe year-end CPI National Average, the Council approved CPI, and the variance betweenthe two.

Also attached for your information is a copy of the December 2020 CPI Year in Review(December to December) which shows that the CPI increased 1.4% in 2020.

We are requesting your recommendation to Council for a 1.4% COLA and an up to 4%Merit increase for the non-union personnel, so we may begin building our FY21-22budget. For FY 20/21 Council awarded 2.3% COLA and 2% merit.

For comparison’s sake, our police officers received a 5-7% increase this year dependingon their step and will receive a 4-6% increase for FY 21/22.

Additionally, here are some neighboring municipalities’ increases:
