Stale Pay
The City Council voted not to raise the Mayor’s pay, which is probably smart, considering the Mayor’s hiring freeze announcement. I don’t have strong feelings one way or the other about the pay raise; it was a relatively small raise (2.5%) that wouldn’t have had much of an effect on the Mayor’s $75,000 salary. I do wonder about mayoral candidate Ken Svoboda’s decision to vote for the pay raise, though. Seems to me it would have been better for him to sit out this vote.

Incredibly poor judgment on Svoboda’s part to vote for the raise.
