Stop the 19k pay rise for Manningham Councillors
Stop the 19k pay rise for Manningham Councillors
Why this petition matters

Manningham Councillors are asking the community to decide if they get an increase in their allowances.
Councillors do less and less these days: officers answer their correspondences, there are far fewer committees for them to attend, many have little contact with the community, it’s difficult and almost impossible at times to get a return phone call or email
Do you agree to:
1.The Mayor' s allowance increasing from $81,204 to $100,434 plus $ 9541 Superannuation. For this money being mayor should be a fulltime job.
2. Councillor allowance increasing from $26,245 to $31,444 plus $2987 Superannuation
This increase is far more than the average increase that hard working manningham families are in their annual review - The gravy train has to stop! We need councillors who are there for the community not for the cash and extra benefits
