ATLANTA (AP) - Atlanta City Council members will receive a raise with Mayor Kasim Reed allowing a roughly 50% proposed pay increase to become law.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution Thursday (http://bit.ly/SUKzp0 ) reported the pay raises will take effect in 2014, and will increase the annual salary for City Council members by more than $20,000 to $60,300.
The newspaper reports Reed did not sign the ordinance, it became law without his signature and he will continue discussions about a possible pay increase for other city employees.
City Council approved the legislation in a 10-4 vote on Dec. 3. Councilmembers said they're not adequately compensated, and their pay has not been adjusted in the past six years to account for cost of living increases.
