26 mai – Pitt elibereaza salariile castigatorilor de top
Conform legii privind dreptul de a cunoaste, Pitt a eliberat declaratiile de impozit pe venit la sfarsitul lunii mai. In calitate de organizatie nonprofit, Pitt este scutit de la plata impozitelor pe veniturile sale, dar tot trebuie sa depuna un formular fiscal de 990 la IRS. Ca parte a formularului, IRS solicita lui Pitt sa enumere angajatii cu cea mai mare remuneratie. Printre acestia se numara antrenorul principal de baschet Jamie Dixon, fostul antrenor principal de fotbal Paul Chryst si Arthur Levine, vice-cancelar senior si decanul Scolii de Medicina.
Deoarece Gallagher a preluat functia la Pitt in august 2014 si anul fiscal Pitt s-a incheiat pe 30 iunie, salariul sau nu a fost listat pe formularul 990. Purtatorul de cuvant al lui Pitt, John Fedele, a spus ca salariul cancelarului a fost stabilit la 525.000 de dolari pe an, cu cinci cresteri anuale de 100.000 USD pana in 2019.

Totusi, formularul 990 de anul viitor nu va enumera salariul complet al lui Gallagher, a spus Fedele.

June 30 – After same-sex marriage ruling, Pennsylvania considers non discrimination bill
While Pennsylvania allowed same-sex marriage as of last May, the state does not yet have a law in place that guards against discrimination based on an individual’s sexual orientation, gender identity or expression.
Both Allegheny County and the City of Pittsburgh have protection against discrimination in place, but nearly 70 percent of Pennsylvania’s population lives in an area without protection against discrimination, according to the ACLU.
Currently, state representatives Dan Frankel (D-Pittsburgh) and Brian Sims (D-Philadelphia) are planning to reintroduce legislation that would make it illegal to discriminate against a person based on that individual’s sexual orientation, gender identity or expression.
The current law protects Pennsylvania citizens from discrimination because of race, color, religious creed, ancestry, age or national origin. The new bill would add “sexual orientation” and “gender identity or expression” to that list.

Members of the Service Employees International Union and dozens of security guards from around Pittsburgh held a rally July 9 outside the Cathedral of Learning calling for a wage increase, more lenient sick days and cheaper health insurance coverage.

July 7 – Volunteer for Police interviews
The Pittsburgh Bureau of Police are looking to hire new officers, but for the first time, community members will have a say in who gets a job.
As part of a new initiative, Pittsburgh Police put out a call for volunteers last week to increase the number of civilian community members taking part in the oral board portion of the hiring process, one of the first assessments for candidates. The initiative is meant to increase community policing, Jennifer Ford, a commander for the police who is overseeing the program, said. Volunteers will interview potential candidates between July 21-30, joining officers to conduct the interviews. The candidates whom the police and volunteers are interviewing are expected to join the force next March if hired.
July 17 – Pitt increases tuition
At an Executive Committee meeting July 17 in Wesley W. Posvar Hall, the Board voted to raise tuition for Pitt’s Oakland students by 1.7 percent, but not for students at its branch campuses.
The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania has yet to formulate a budget for 2016, leaving Pitt with an inconclusive operating budget for the fiscal year, which began on July 1. Pitt, however, decided to approve the increase now, Chancellor Patrick Gallagher said, “so that students and their families can make plans for the coming year.” Once the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania’s budget is released, Gallagher plans to increase the budget for student aid by the same amount as the tuition increase.
Overall, Pitt’s Board of Trustees approved a tuition increase of 1.7 percent, making it the lowest tuition increase Pitt has seen in the last 40 years.
July 21 – Pittsburgh City Council to refine noise ordinance
By changing a few words in local legislation, Pittsburgh City Council hopes to make it easier to keep the peace.
At a City Council Meeting on July 21, Bruce Kraus, City Council president and South Oakland representative, introduced a bill that intends to update and rework Pittsburgh’s Noise Control Ordinance, a city-wide rule meant to keep public order. If it passes, the legislation will change the city’s definition of noise — which is currently set at anything above 75 decibels — to a looser one that defines noise as any “sound that annoys or disturbs a reasonable person of normal sensitivities.” This definition, Kraus said, is used by other cities and municipalities around the country.
