Council discusses pay, term increase

CITY COUNCIL

Conversations during last week’s council meeting turned towards a potential bump in compensat ion and term length for Elgin’s chair holders.

City Council took time July 2 to discuss what they would like to see included in City Manager Tom Mattis’ upcoming annual budget proposal. Ahead of the 2024-25 fiscal year proposal, council members voiced opinions on a salary increase in response to city growth and a longer term of service to better situate and focus the board.
