The Radcliff City Council met for their first meeting of the month and a work session Monday evening.

The first reading was held on the city’s budget ordinance for fiscal year 2025-2026. As read by City Attorney Mike Pike, the budget includes anticipated revenues of $18,361,000 under the general fund, $500,000 under Road/LGEA, and $1,887,300 under the Stormwater Utility Fund. Those are the same amounts listed for total appropriations.

During the work session, Radcliff Chief Financial Officer Chance Fox discussed proposed updates to the salary scale for city police and fire personnel. Fox said the increases keep the city’s police and fire departments competitive with other area departments.

“We recommended a 4 percent increase on starting pay for both police and fire, above and beyond what’s currently in the plan for their entry salary, which is what we had discussed, and then secondary to that there was also discussion about what the annual step increase amount should be,” Fox said.

Members of the council expressed support for the increases so long as they do not stretch the budget too thin.

The council also received information on a zoning map amendment for three parcels of property on the south side of Chandler Avenue between Jones and Waterfield street from R-7 and R-4 to just R-4, and a zoning map amendment for 699 Blackjack Road from Residential Holding and R-2 to just R-2.

The Radcliff City Council will next meet June 17.
