Regular Meeting of the City Council <br /> November 8, 2004 <br /> Page 5 <br />another opportunity to address it. <br />Following a lengthy discussion about stability pay, Councilman Guest made a <br />motion to put a cap on stability pay at $200.00 for regular employees and <br />$300.00 for EMS employees, based on $2.00 per month of service for regular <br />employees and $3.00 for EMS employees, for this one year. Councilwoman <br />Fisher seconded the motion, and it carried 4 ayes, 3 nays, Councilman Fendley, <br />Councilman Poston and Councilwoman Wilkerson voting no. Councilman Bell <br />said he really wanted to go to a higher amount on the stability pay and wanted <br />to change his vote. Mayor Fendley indicated there would have to be a new <br />motion, since they had already voted.

He explained this <br />was a system of abatements based on a property being improved and taxes on <br />that improvement being abated for a period of time.

He iterated all of the options that could be used in the <br />ordinance. <br />A lengthy discussion followed about the length of time for the abatements and <br />the percentages for those periods of times, as well as the criteria for qualifying <br />for the abatement. Councilman Wilson suggested a tax freeze instead of an <br />abatement. City Attorney Schenk suggested that when the Council settles on <br />a program, then he can put it in writing and approach Cathy Jackson, Chief <br /> <br />
