City Officials could see raise in salary

Local city officials could see a raise in their paychecks. A proposed salary increase is being discussed again at next Monday’s City Council meeting. If passed, the raise would go in effect next year. Discussion continued on the issue monday night. Alderman Dennis Moon argues that those elected to office now have the ability to participate in these negotiations on the raises, something he says is a conflict of interest. The proposed salary increases would affect the mayor, city clerk and treasurer in the upcoming elections.
