Dysart et al council divided on increasing remuneration

Dysart et al council still doesn’t have a consensus when it comes to its remuneration.

Councilors were given two options on increasing their pay and both were voted down.

In an e-mail to the My Haliburton Now Newsroom, C.A.O. Tamara Willbee says new options could be presented to council in January with the proposed raise taking effect for the next council.

According to a administration department report, Dysart’s councillors make less than all other municipal politicians in the county.

The deputy mayor’s pay would go from $17,317.44 to $21,395.94, while the mayor’s position would see a $500 increase.
