Councilman David Albaum presented a discussion item on the agenda of the June 20, 2017, Village Council Meeting regarding the adjustment of salaries. The Village Council , by general consensus, agreed that the issue was worth exploring asked the Village Attorney to draft a resolution, and for staff to research other municipalities.
