Local Government Salary & Benefits Survey 2026 Results Are Available

The League of Minnesota Cities is pleased to announce the 2026 Local Government Salary & Benefits Survey results are now ready for review by participating agencies. Emails with a link to the survey platform and the user credentials were distributed to organizations that participated in the survey on June 10, 2026. A username and password are required to access the data.

If your organization participated, access the survey results (password protected).

About the survey

  • We have pivoted from an update anytime during the year survey to a once-a-year window to update data. That process allows for a more robust data validation procedure to build greater confidence in data reliability.
  • Participation in the survey is required for free access.
    • An annual fee will be charged for nonparticipating entities or other organizations requesting access. The fees for 2026 ($2,242 for governmental entities or $3,450 for other organizations) apply regardless of when the request for access is made.
    • To purchase access to the 2026 survey, complete the request to purchase access form (doc) or contact League HR staff for more information at [email protected].
  • This survey tool will allow you to compare salaries and benefits of your staff to those of other city and county organizations throughout Minnesota.
  • Over 300 Minnesota cities (Greater Minnesota and the metro area), as well as counties and other public-sector organizations are included in the 2026 survey.
  • We are committed to a providing a reliable and intuitive platform from which to pull reports, that said, Gallagher, the survey administrator, will also provide a webinar to review the survey reporting dashboard on June 11, 2026, at 10 a.m. Agencies that participated in the survey received a link to the webinar along with their survey credentials on June 10. If you are not able to attend this webinar, this session will be recorded and linked on this page.
  • Please contact Cynthia Dolan ([email protected]) or Thomas Cummins ([email protected]) regarding survey dashboard questions.

Disclaimer: The League provides the Local Government Salary Survey program to facilitate the exchange of information among elected officials and management of participating organizations. The League program relies on sophisticated methodology and proprietary technology. The League and its partners contract with Arthur J. Gallagher for the survey tool and each organization is responsible for entering its own data. Participating organizations are expected to allow access to elected officials and select management staff only.
