City council

City council is planning to revise the ordinance that would almost double members' annual salaries.

The Bloomington City Council voted unanimously Wednesday to adopt the latest amendments to the Safe Streets for All action plan. The goal of the ambitious plan is to reduce deaths and injuries on Bloomington roads to zero by 2039.

The Bloomington city council will hold a special session next Tuesday for the salary ordinance that has sparked public backlash.

Bloomington’s common council will hear proposed salary increases Wednesday for its mayor, clerk and council positions.

The fire department will see salary increases of nearly $24,000, while police officers will receive a base pay increase of $12,000.

The $151 million budget includes wage increases for Police, Fire, and Community and Family Resource Departments, new affordable housing units, annexation planning and more.

City of Bloomington offices and departments will present their 2025 budget proposals to the Bloomington Common Council this week.

The Bloomington City Council has rejected Mayor Kerry Thomson’s veto of its resolution calling for a ceasefire in Gaza.

Mayor Kerry Thomson says the resolutions take up a lot of time behind the scenes with dozens and sometimes hundreds of messages and meetings.

Join us this Friday, as we speak with Mayor Thomson about the city's projects and everything else she has planned for the upcoming year.
