Elected officials' 2% pay raise takes effect
St. Clair Shores
Summary
The Compensation Commission recommended a 2% raise for the Mayor and Council, and a motion to reject it failed 2-4, so salaries rise January 8. Rusie argues the same rationale should apply to board and commission members stuck at $15 per meeting.
