<br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Special Council Meeting <br />3/2/92 <br />Page Three <br />Mr. Rinker said the initial information he had was that it was in consideration of the amount <br />of time required; it was treated as a full-time job and the $42,000 would reflect a fair <br />amount of involvement. He does not know where the $8,000 came from other than that <br />would be a ceiling. Mr. Rinker asked Mr. Flynn and Mayor Pietrafese for comments. <br />Mr. Flynn said he asked Mr. Diemert to survey other communities. This is the figure they <br />determined for Mayor/Safety Director. Regarding their position on Council's salary, they <br />came up with an $8,000 cap. It would be up to Council to decide a lower figure. <br />Mayor Pietrafese said he wants to thank Mr. Flynn for his remarks and introducrion. He <br />agrees wholeheartedly with the proposed compensation for Council. Mayor Pietrafese said <br />he is not fully aware of all the duties and responsibilities which come with this office but it <br />is not a three-hour per week responsibility. He hopes to find some time to put a complete <br />package together to save money for the Village. Mayor Pietrafese said he would prefer not <br />to have the resolution pertaining to the Mayor's compensation voted on this evening, and <br />asked that the resolution be withdrawn at this time. <br />Mr. Flynn said he does not think anyone on Council has to apologize for the amount of <br />time they put in and he thinks the concept is that this is a volunteer job; he feels this is a <br />justified issue. <br />Mr. Rinker said he thinks they all know very clearly the amount of time that Mayor <br />Pietrafese has put into this job. He thinks they owe it to the voters to get their facts and <br />figures together and come back; they do not want to give the appearance that this is being <br />rushed into. <br />Mr. Ferrante said anyone who gces into a new position will have to spend a lot of time to <br />get themselves indoctrinated. They must learn the job first. After they learn the job, then <br />they can figure out how many hours they should work. <br />Mr. Basile, seconded by Mr. Fixler, made a motion to table Resolution No. 92-12. <br />ROLL CALL: AYES: Mr. Basile, Mr. Busa, Mrs. Cinco, Mr. Fenante, Mr. Fixler, <br />and Mr. Rinker <br />NAYS: Mr. Flynn <br />Motion Carried <br />Resolution Tabled <br />Mr. Busa said he requested his name be removed from the legislation. <br />Mr. Fixler agreed. <br />Mr. Diemert said to note that Vince Busa and Mazk Fixler want their names withdrawn. <br />Mr. Basile, seconded by Mr. Ferrante, made a motion to table Resolurion No. 92-13. <br />Mr. Busa and Mr. Fixler's narnes should be removed as introducing Resolution No. <br />92-18.
