In a special meeting held on short notice with the deadline for filing as a candidate to run for Mayor the Village Council voted to raise the salary of the Mayor to $12,600.
The salary for the mayor was due to be lowered to $7,200 a year beginning in Janaury 2008. The mayor called a special meeting so that the council could raise the salary back to $12,600.
The ordinance was passed as an emergency measure so the resident cannot petition it and place it on the ballot to allow the Village to vote on it.
Way to go Village Council. Who were you watching out for when you made that vote? Surely not the residents of this Village.
Thank you Ron Hays, Marzia Helton, Ann Marks and the newly sworn in council member for that evening for voting in such a way to not allow the residents a chance to have a say.
We know who you are looking out for, and it is obivously not the residents.
