And I understand that, but I work closely with the mayor.. .and I think it's a necessity for the good of the community. If you don't have a capable, reliable man in office, you lose out." Former Park City Mayor John Price said during his tenure the hidden expenses of the post personally cost him $4,000 to $6,000 a year that was not repaid by the city. "There are umpteen things you wouldn't do if you weren't mayor-parties, mayor-parties, fundraisers, taking people to breakfast, lunch, dinner. I'd like to ask that the City Council make the raise retroactive," he joked. Land company owner Bill Coleman noted that a city's political strength rested primarily with the mayor. He continued that Park City needs more financial attention from the state and the city manager can not handle that task alone. "I don't want to think the mayor is holding back on his responsibilities or not giving extra attention (because of the extra hours and small compensation.) compensa-tion.) I think the whole City Council is underpaid." Coleman suggested that an increased salary should be built into upcoming budgets. "The mayor is a bandleader of the town, so to speak," Coleman said. "And he now has to put his finger on a larger government. There is no way you can rationalize not paying a man who has to do that much more." Councilman Dering attempted to pul the raise discussion in perspective. He noted that with the approval of the increase, the city would pay the mayor an additional $6,000 this year. "And at the start of the meeting we approved a bill for $6,400 for trash bins, and no one complained." At the close of the public hearing the council voted on a motion to increase the mayor's monthly salary to $650. Four of the five councilmen favored the motion, with Richard Martinez voting against it. The salary increase will become effective upon adoption of a new wage schedule ordinance. This action is expected to occur at the council's November 2 meeting. i 1 I ! 3 t il 1 1 i r 1 1 1 1 it. mh I'll L"t''- ( ALL FOR FREE ESTIMATE PHONE R49 8287 ii. ..mnrmi-nrniii 'nil T-n III I1 '- -. ,rn r--Ji.cir.B - urv' "T'JO, . -vT" . .
