If the proposed amendment is approved by the voters at the election, the increase in compensation authorized thereby shall become effective beginning with those members of the County Council taking office in December 2022.

Question B:
COUNTY COUNCIL COMPENSATION

The County Charter currently sets compensation for members of the County Council at $14,400 per year, with the President of the Council receiving an additional $1,000 per year.

The compensation set forth in the resolution would become effective beginning with those members of the County Council taking office after the next general election.
