City of Eureka Measure H: Charter Amendment on Mayor and Council Pay
Eureka city, California
My vote power: High
What does this measure do?
Eureka's charter would let the City Council set mayor and council pay by city law, starting at up to $1,250 a month for the mayor and $1,000 for council members, up from $625 and $500 set in 1988. The pay comes from the city budget, and later yearly raises would need a finance committee review.
Proposed by: Eureka City Council
The city's elected mayor and council, who voted unanimously to ask voters to change how their own pay is set.
