Slippery Rock Township approves raises, welcomes new supervisor

SLIPPERY ROCK TWP — Township employees have raises coming their way.

Supervisors approved a 65-cent raise for all employees from their base rate of $21.80 per hour. Secretary Christina Barkley specified the rate is set for the township’s current employees, but new employees may earn more.

Jason Allen, township road foreman and new supervisor, abstained from the vote since his pay is still being adjusted. Allen is taking over for Supervisor Terry Doerr, who resigned in December.

Supervisor Paul Dickey abstained from a vote regarding the rate for working supervisors when assisting in the township, such as with the road crew. Dickey had previously taken a lower salary when assisting, but supervisors Allen and John Hines wanted to raise his rate to $21.80 in keeping with the other employees.
