Charter Amendment
County Council Compensation

The County Charter currently sets compensation for members of the County Council at $14,400 per year, with the President of the Council receiving an additional $1,000 per year. The proposed Charter amendment authorizes an increase in compensation for members of the County Council from $14,400 per year to $23,000 per year, with the President of the Council receiving an additional $1,000 per year. If the proposed amendment is approved by the voters at the election, the increase in compensation authorized thereby shall become effective beginning with those members of the County Council taking office in December 2022. The proposed amendment shall have no effect on the compensation of the sitting Council.
