Council, mayor get salary raises lower than proposed
by Raquel Hendrickson | inMaricopa
After a mathematics challenge, Maricopa city councilmembers voted Tuesday night to give themselves a raise starting in January.
The salary increases amount to a 20% raise for the mayor and a 14% raise for councilmembers. The two members of the current council who will not benefit from the vote were divided on the issue.
Marvin Brown voted in favor of the increase while Julia Gusse was the lone vote against. Both are at the end of their terms.
