Employer goes through near year long compensation study, only to give a .25 cent raise and advertise a yearly that I’ll never get

Just a bit of a rant here but I work as a municipal employee and over the past year my city went through a class and compensation study to reclassify compensation throughout the city departments. I never expected a big raise, but I was hoping they might put my job to full time rather than part time regular (max 38 hours a week). Planning to move on anyway from the job but it really just irks me to see their letter outlining the changes as just an extra quarter an hour (a .8% raise) and highlighting my “new yearly” pay for a figure that's based on a full time schedule, so that number is one I'll never see. Just seems very underhanded but doubt it's anything illegal. All the more reason to look elsewhere I guess
