Topics getting the most attention in Lynn Haven public meetings, ranked by how frequently they are discussed.
3 issues in taxes budget with high priority
Employee salary and classification study
The city's last salary study was done in 2015 and never implemented. New charter language would require pay grades and salary scales to be reviewed at least every three years so the city stays competitive and avoids turnover.
City Clerk-Treasurer hiring process
The commission tabled the hiring process to workshop the job description first — including thorny questions like who builds the city manager's budget if the treasurer oversees the city budget. The net cost is budgeted at about $45,000. A workshop will be scheduled in October.

Voters approved having a city clerk; now commissioners have decided it will be a clerk/treasurer role, 3-2, with debate over whether it reports to the commission or the city manager and whether to hire internally.
