Town council discusses councilman compensation amid transparency concerns
The Advisory Committee of Non-Voting Taxpayers meeting held on March 1, 2025, focused on updates regarding the town council study committee and ongoing discussions about councilman compensation.

During the meeting, committee members reviewed the current status of the town council study committee. While no significant new developments were reported, there was a notable discussion about the compensation for council members. The committee is considering a payment of $40,000 for council members, but there is still disagreement among members regarding this amount.

One member highlighted that if a town council had been established earlier, it could have led to a more transparent operation, potentially avoiding some of the current issues being discussed.

As the committee continues to navigate these discussions, the focus remains on finding a resolution that satisfies all parties involved. The next steps will likely involve further deliberation on council member compensation and the overall structure of the town council.
