Cheers to those trying to hold the line on city salaries

City Council voted Monday to increase salaries of elected and appointed officials by three percent, according to an Advocate report.

Congratulations to Doug Marmie, R-6, Bob Diebold, R-AL, and Rick Henderson, R-3 for casting votes against a new round of taxpayer burden.

Special thanks to Henderson who was the only council member to vote against raising the police chief's salary to $80,000 per year.
