Voters May Decide If Mayor, Council Members Should Get a Pay Raise

Commission made up of Tucson residents will look at issue and determine whether it will be on November ballot.

Listen:

The city of Tucson may ask voters in November to decide on a pay raise for the mayor and members of the City Council.

But before that happens, a seven-member commission will look at the issue and determine how much of a raise is warranted.

The City Manager’s office is now taking applications for citizens to serve on that commission. Participants may not be city employees nor can they be related to a city employee.

The commission will meet over about two months at the beginning of next year.
