Council Pay Increase – Motion to Freeze Failed

By January 20, 2025No Comments
I voted for the freeze, but in a tie vote the motion fails. I have voted for a pay freeze every single time this happens. Keep this in mind for the 7 who voted yes, and then will be asking for your vote in October.

“A pay increase for Calgary council won’t be rolled back this year, after a vote on the issue divided council down the middle.
A public hearing meeting of council lasted late into the evening on Tuesday, as councillors debated a motion to reconsider its approval of a compensation formula that gave them a 3.07 per cent raise, effective Jan. 1.
The motion ultimately failed after council deadlocked in a 7-7 vote.
