Unbelievable. Families around here are struggling to make ends meet and they think they deserve way more money. Fix this.
60% raise? Most of us are lucky to get 2% cost of living. Seriously out of touch with the people they represent.
Absolute greed. A 60 percent raise for doing what? My property taxes keep going up while these guys just pad their pockets. Ridiculous.
Do your jobs and stop stealing from the taxpayers. Really disappointed in this council.
What a joke. They voted for this in one reading before anyone could say anything. Sneaky behavior.

Where is the accountability? You promised a cut and now you do this. Totally shameful.
