TORONTO BUDGET DEBATED

Toronto City Council was seized yesterday with the matter of salaries as consideration of the annual budget continued. The Council met to consider the Thirteenth Report of the Standing Committee of Finance and Assessment which contained salary recommendations for the coming year.

The matter of the salary to be paid to the police magistrate occupied the bulk of the Council’s time yesterday. The Committee had recommended an increase to $2,000 per year for the position, which would make it once of the highest paid positions in the city, more than the $1,600 the Mayor will be paid this coming year.

Following a lengthy debate the Council resolved to pay the police magistrate $1,601 in the coming year. The extra dollar owing to the fact that an earlier motion to set the salary at $1,600 had been defeated and could not, therefore, be reintroduced.

The City Solicitor will be the highest paid position in the city this year with a salary of $2,400. The City Chamberlain will be paid $2,000.
