Cook County’s minimum wage is set to rise in July, but at a rate below the annual rise in prices. 

The county issued a notice Tuesday that the minimum wage for non-tipped employees working in the county would rise from $13.35 to $13.70 an hour July 1. Tipped employees’ minimum wage will rise from $7.40 to $8 an hour.
