Cheapest council in Huron!
Although they found out
this week that they are paid
less than their counterparts
in the other four towns in
Huron, members of Exeter
council appeared hesitant in
taking positive steps to
correct that situation.
A discussion was held on
salaries, but the matter was
Filially
tiirried over to the
finance committee for their
consideration.
Councillors Gaylan
Josephson and Jay t;ampbell
had been named to study
salaries and the former said
this week that Exeter is well
below the average found in
Huron. He said the average
stipend for a mayor in the
other four towns was $3,476,
compared to the $2,300 paid
in Exeter., The, average
salary for council members
in the other four towns is
$2,247 and Exeter's is
currently $1,800.
All four towns are higher
in the mayor's stipend with
Goderich leading the way at
$6,813. Only Wingham has a
lower scale for council
members than Exeter, that
being $1,565. Goderich is the
highest at *3,406.
Most of the other towns,
however, pay a per meeting
fee, while Exeter's is an
annual salary.
Mayor Bruce Shaw said
the latter was implemented
when it was found that
Exeter did not have absentee
problems with council
members and it eliminated
situations where special
meetings may be called to
increase compensation,
although he was quick to
suggest he didn't know any
idiot who .would .want. to
attend more meetings just to
boost his compensation.
"We're all grossly un-
derpaid," Shaw said in

reference to the stipends of
the other towns.
Councillor Bill ; Miclde
moved that the report be
filed, saying he would like to
sit for a year and if council
members had the courage to
up their stipends in an
election year then they could
do so.
However, the motion was
defeated, with the only
support coming from Morley
Hall.
Councillor Lossy Fuller
said there should be a little
increase each year to avoid
problems experienced a few
years ago 'by the federal
government when they
boosted their remuneration
by a substantial amount.
