“Who wouldn’t want a salary increase, but it would be irresponsible of me to accept, with the ISR discount, the president had talked about a raise, which seemed like a good proposal to me,” he said.
He explained that the one made by the president seemed like a good proposal because that way they would not damage the finances of the City Council, since they are going through critical moments, since they are from a government in opposition to the federal and state governments, for which they have not received any extraordinary support from the state government.
He stressed that when talking with the City Council treasurer he explained that federal participations arrive a bit ‘shaved’, only to pay the payrolland yet the City Council has never failed to pay a single fortnight.
“It would be very irresponsible of me to approve an increase when there are temporary workers, workers who stand up for us like the one who collects the garbage, the one who cleans the parks.
Unfortunately we do not have a tabulator here at City Hall, but we will work on it soon”, he stressed.
Jehovaneha Lugo said that he was not in favor of the salary increase, since he is aware that there are people who earn only 1,500 or 1,800 pesos a fortnight, so the increase in salary that was proposed did not seem fair to him .
