City again sues to void pay raise for Mayor Sauline
Mary Benton files suit in Trumbull County Common Pleas to overturn December 1991 council action granting Mayor Sauline a 1992 raise of 1345 and 1993 raise of 1129. She contends the raise is interim and improper as Sauline began a new term. The suit names treasurer Madeline and auditor Joshua and cites state law on ordinance effectiveness. The mayor calls Benton’s action a nuisance and defends council procedure.
