Kamloops pay rates in line with other municipalities, says city CAO
KAMLOOPS — The city’s chief administrative officer says the recently released salaries of city directors, managers and unionized employees, are in line with other B.C. municipalities.
In 2016, the city spent more than $58 million on salaries and wages. Ninety-two employees earn $100,000 or more working for the City of Kamloops.
CAO David Trawin says he’s trying to ensure each department is economically efficient. He notes though that some of those making more than $100,000 are firefighters with Kamloops Fire Rescue, and their wages are not negotiated by the city.
