Auburn to discuss council compensation at July Committee of the Whole, no decisions planned
Summary
Councilman Bob Parsons requested that the City Council set aside time at the July Committee of the Whole to publicly discuss council compensation; the mayor said the meeting will be for discussion only and that no decisions will be made that night.
Councilman Bob Parsons asked the Auburn City Council to set aside time at the July Committee of the Whole meeting to discuss council compensation, Mayor Ron Anders said during his May 20 mayor's report.
Anders said the council "has had a couple of work sessions related to the compensation and the salaries of city council members" and that Parsons "felt like it's time to take this forward to the citizens and have a discussion during the Committee of the Whole." Anders later reiterated that the July Committee of the Whole meeting "will be" for discussion and that "there'll be no decisions made that night."
The mayor's remarks indicate the item will be scheduled on the Committee of the Whole agenda for July but did not specify an exact date or whether the council will solicit public comment at that session. No motion, ordinance, or compensation figures were presented in the mayor's report.
Next steps described in the meeting remarks are limited to scheduling the topic for discussion at the July Committee of the Whole; any formal proposal, motion, or vote would require later agenda placement and action by the council.
