By Herald Staff

WILDWOOD– Wildwood’s municipal clerk Christopher Wood, tax collector Faith Wilson and chief financial officer Jeanette Powers have filed a lawsuit against the city seeking raises in line with those given to other city employees this year, the Press of Atlantic City reports.
The lawsuit also challenges the city’s decision to have them take 17 furlough days between Nov. 15 of this year and May 23, 2011.
According to the Press of Atlantic City, in the lawsuit, Wood, Wilson and Powers, each tenured city employees, received 2 percent raises for the year retroactive to July 1 along with several other non-union employees.
According to the report, the lawsuit also notes that, according to the city’s payroll records, among the employees the weighted average pay increase was 5.15 percent, while the median raise was 11 percent. That includes contractual salary increases with the city’s union employees.
