The City of Windsor is currently undertaking a Council Compensation Review for members of the new Council that will be elected this fall. The goal of this review is to ensure that compensation for the newly elected City Council members is reasonable for the duties and expectation of the positions.
The last local compensation review for Windsor's municipal elected officials was conducted in 2003, and the most recent increase to council compensation was 2005 (1.9%).
Additionally, the federal government's planned elimination of the current one-third tax-free exemption for elected officials in 2019 will impact Windsor's elected officials along with those of many other municipalities across the province. The elimination of this tax-free exemption will generally result in a reduction to the take-home pay for elected officials that currently receive the one-third tax free allowance.
For these reasons, an independent compensation review committee made up of community leaders has been formed to review, for the first time in 15 years, the proper level of compensation for municipal elected officials.
Have your say:
A short survey has been created to help our local committee understand the position of Windsor residents on this issue and will be followed by a pair of town hall sytle meetings in August.
