Port Washington city employees will receive a 1.25% salary increase for 2013.

    The Common Council on Tuesday approved the across-the-board raises for workers, adding that merit increases will be considered following employee performance evaluations later this year.

    The money is included in the 2013 budget, City Administrator Mark Grams said.

    Grams said the city looked at what other Ozaukee County communities are giving employees — a number that generally ranges from nothing to 2% — in deciding how much of a raise to give.
