No Interim Increase Right Choice on Mayor's Raise
In Syracuse in February councilors voted themselves a $33,000 pay hike retroactive to January 1. Critics argued elective officials should not use public funds for more money mid election cycle. Later, the council refused Mayor Roy Bernardi’s request for a raise, citing timing and the forthcoming transition as lame duck concerns. Bernardi plans to leave for a HUD post in Washington, adding to the controversy over a raise tied to pension, timing, and political optics.
