Anonymous Why did you choose the maximum for each category? I would not have done so. The mayoral allowance is a full time job salary. Do these persons work full time? What time are councillors expected to work for $26k? I doubt that these allowances cum salaries are warranted. Too many use these positions as stepping stones to political appointments. |
Councillor allowances are considered by the Victorian Government to be a payment made to recognise the contributions of those elected to roles in local government. The duties of a Councillor demand time, energy and commitment. Over time the traditional Councillor role has been expanded together with greater expectations of, and demands on, Councillors in relation to community development and engagement. The strengthening of the entitlement provisions in the new Local Government Act 2020 further highlights the importance of appropriately compensating Councillors for their time and commitment to their role. |

Anonymous It would be good to see some justification regarding why both are receiving the highest of the range prior to this being approved. |

Anonymous My opinion is likely to be uncommon. I feel that to attract high calibre Local Government representatives they need to be paid more. The role places considerable demands on time and mental acuity and is largely a thankless & frustrating position, unless they are pandering to protagonist agenda to pacify the easily riled public instead of doing what is necessary for the betterment of the shire. |
