Any raise in salary should not take affect until after the next election in
2011. I have always been strongly opposed to any current sitting government
raising its own pay for its legislators or chief executive. In fact, about
10 years ago the most recent amendment to the U.S. Constitution reads
precisely that way...no sitting Congress shall be able to raise its own pay.

Craig and every member of the council knew what the salary was prior to
running for the job. Raising the salary now is like changing the rules in
your favor while in the middle of playing the game. Propose this to go into
place (if passed by the voters) for January of 2012.
