The Prairie Village City Council has approved a 1.5% end-of-year bonus for all city employees, citing their work during the coronavirus pandemic, along with a roughly $1.4 million projected 2020 budget surplus. The bonus is based on city employees’ 2020 base salaries and the payouts will total roughly $101,250, according to council documents. The move was approved at Monday’s city council meeting. Mayor Eric Mikkelson said city employees merited the bonus because they had “made extraordinary sacrifices to keep our city running smoothly this year.”
