A. second bylaw set the retnuneration paid to board and committee members at $200: Members of the town's board and committees are now paid an honorarium of $150 annually. The third bylaw set out the travel allowance and expense shedule for members of council. In speaking 'to the bylaws, councillor Jim Seaks expressed that the bylaws even appeared on the agenda. "Council did not ask the administrative committee to delve into salaries and as far as the expense bylaw goes, I, do not agree with 40 cents a mile and $35 a day for meals," he said. "I checked with industries and found the average paid is between 17 and 19 cents a kilometre. Ninety-nine per cent of the conventions and seminars have meals built in and $35 is way out of whack." Commenting that any committee is allowed to initiate diFusSionand ,111.4kO, recommendations to council, councillor Bill Clifford said the administrative committee is already Working on its budget and that the items in question were' not discretionary. "The bylaws were brought in for voting and discussing and the increases are really just ah updating," he said. "With respect to remuneration, it's not really a raise, just" the equivalent of the 'cost -of - living. If you feel you're doing less , fine, but don't vote against keeping up with the times. With respect to meals, there's integrity involved."
