Austin City council is considering raising pay for themselves as city workers ask for a higher minimum wage. The last pay increase for council members was in 2006.
"When they ran for these offices, they knew what the pay was, what knew what the hours were, they know what's required, they know they're allowed to get outside incomes, so they're giving themselves a benefit that no tax payer is getting," Save Austin Now co-founder Matt Mackowiak said.
"We are experiencing vacancies like we are in other parts of the department and many times upon exit surveys and asking why, it is compensation," Austin Chief of Police Joseph Chacon said. The co-founder of Save Austin Now said the money that may go to council salaries should be spent elsewhere.
