I am surprised this is not creating more of a stir. I don't see the benefit of having a $90,000/year mayor. Combine with the doubling of Council salaries to $10,000/year. If my math ads right the Council wants to add to the City's administrative cost an additional $48,000/year ($13K for Mayor plus $35K/year for the 7 Council members. This is not what we voted for the 33% increase in city income tax!
for all practical purposes Mayor Welo will make $100,000 in 2012. The city has yearly longevity of $1000 making her salary $98,000 plus benifits.
Also, it is convenient the council announces this raise after time expires on filing for candidacy for Novemeber election. Which brings up why isn't anyone running against Georgine? Surely, enough people had enough of her tax and spend ways.
