The highest-paid public officials in Los Angeles city are not necessarily the highest-ranking, according to a Daily News survey of local government salaries. Daily News.

Unlike in Bell - where the city manager's nearly $800,000 salary made him likely the highest paid local official in the nation - the top manager at Los Angeles City Hall is only the fifth-highest paid department head in the city, while the mayor is eighth-highest.

Greuel post salaries

As promised earlier this week, Los Angeles City Controller Wendy Greuel on Friday posted the salaries of nearly all city workers by job category on the Internet.Daily News
