Council members to take cuts to help budget
At Monday's budget meeting, City Council members voted to suspend their benefits to help balance the budget.
Bill Ruh, John Dutrey and Carolyn Raft voted for the suspension, Mayor Paul Eaton abstained and Leonard Paulitz was absent.
The cost-cutting measure amounts to $9,000 a year, which is about 20 pecent of their pay.
"If everyone else is taking a cut, the council should lead by example," Ruh said.
