Victoria council will ask the province to amend a process it says is awkward: councillors having to set their own pay.
The call for changes in the compensation process for local politicians comes after Victoria councillors faced weeks of public scrutiny for voting to give themselves a 25-per-cent raise this term, before they decided to pause that move.
Council on Thursday (April 11) passed a motion calling on the province to change the council remuneration approval process to remove councillors from making decisions on their own compensation.
